X-ray spectroscopy of the rare-earth nickelate LuNiO3 : LDA+DMFT study

Abstract: We present a computational study of resonant inelastic x-ray scattering (RIXS) and x-ray absorption in a representative rare-earth nickelate LuNiO3. We study the changes in the spectra across the metal-insulator/site-disproportionation transition. In particular, we address the question of site-selectivity of the two methods in the disproportionated insulating phase and the signature of metal-insulator transition in the fluorescence-like feature of the RIXS spectra. To this end we use the local density approxim… Show more

“…By setting the resonant photon energy to the distinct Co L 3 -XAS features of the Co 2+ and Co 3+ sites, the site-selective local excitations are measured. The site-selectivity of RIXS has been discussed in literature. The (photon-in–photon-out) transitions in RIXS brings a broad sensitivity to dd excitations of the system that provides a better determination of the local electronic structure including the orbital hybridization effects. This has also been demonstrated using 1s3d RIXS on Co 3 O 4 , , but the intensity was limited by the absorption cross-section of the quadrupole 1s3d transition. We show that the Co 2p3d RIXS is a good chemical site-selective approach to study accurate details of the ground state and the core excited states.…”

“…The AIM with the LDA + DMFT hybridization densities V 2 (ε) is extended to include the Fe 2p core orbitals and their interaction with the Fe 3d electrons on the same x-ray excited site. The Fe 2p XPS intensities are computed from the AIM with the numerical solver adopting configuration interaction scheme [9,48,49]. The core-valence interaction parameter U dc is set to U dc = 1.3 × U dd where U dd is the configuration averaged dd interaction.…”

“…A configuration-interaction (CI) method for computing the HAXPES intensities is employed, for details see Refs. [8,51]. The CI scheme, which is widely used in computing the core level spectra using an impurity-based model, generates basis configurations by a sequential exchange of electrons between the impurity site and the bath (representing the rest of the crystal) starting with a normal-valence configuration, i.e., |d 0 for tetravalent Ti systems.…”
