X-ray spectroscopy studies of the electronic structure and band-structure calculations of cubic TaCxN1-x carbonitrides

The electronic structure of almost stoichiometric cubic (NaCl structure) tantalum carbonitrides TaCxN₁₋x synthesized under high pressure-high temperature conditions (7-10 GPa and 2100-2400°C) was studied employing X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), Xray emission spectroscopy (XES) and X-ray abs...

Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:The electronic structure of almost stoichiometric cubic (NaCl structure) tantalum carbonitrides TaCxN₁₋x synthesized under high pressure-high temperature conditions (7-10 GPa and 2100-2400°C) was studied employing X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), Xray emission spectroscopy (XES) and X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS). The XPS valence-band and core-level spectra, the XES Ta Lβ ₅, C Kα and N Kα bands (reflecting energy distributions of mainly the Ta 5d-, C 2p- and N 2p-like states, respectively), as well as the XAS Ta LIII edges (unoccupied Ta d-like states) were derived and compared on a common energy scale for the compounds TaC₀.₉₈, TaC₀.₅₂N₀.₄₉ and TaN₀.₉₇ obtained under the mentioned high pressure-high temperature conditions. To investigate the influence of substitution of carbon atoms by nitrogen in the cubic TaCxN₁₋x system, the cluster self-consistent calculations of the electron density of states for cubic TaC, TaC₀.₅N₀.₅ and TaN compounds were carried out with the FEFF8 code. In the present work a rather good agreement of the experimental and theoretical results for the electronic structure of the TaCxN₁₋x system under consideration was obtained.
