Abstract

Using Ni, Mn, and Co L2,3-edge soft X-ray absorption spectra supported by calculations of atomic multiplets with allowance for the crystal field and charge transfer, the charge states of cations in doped phosphates LiNiPO4, LiNi0.9Co0.1PO4, and LiNi0.9Mn0.1PO4 are determined. It is established that nickel, manganese, and cobalt ions are in the divalent high-spin state and have an octahedral oxygen environment. Oxygen K-edge X-ray absorption spectra showed the absence of impurity states in the energy gap of manganese- or cobalt-doped lithium nickel phosphates.
