High-resolution EELS investigation of the electronic structure of ilmenites
Abstract
The electronic structure of a series of compounds belonging to the ilmenite family is investigated using high resolution electron energy loss spectroscopy (EELS). The energy loss near edge structure (ELNES) of the O-K, Ti-L23 and transition metal L23 edges have been recorded in MnTiO3, FeTiO3, CoTiO3, and NiTiO3 with an energy resolution of 0.20–0.25eV. The formal valency and spin-state of the transition metal are determined unambiguously from …
