Abstract

Motivated by recent hard x-ray photoemission spectroscopy (XPS) experiment for trivalent Fe oxides Sr2FeMoO6 (ferrimagnetic correlated metal) and LaFeO3 (antiferromagnetic Mott insulator) (Phuyal et al 2021 J. Phys. Chem. C 125 11249–56), we present a theoretical analysis of the Fe 2p core-level spectra using a computational method based on local density approximation combined with dynamical mean-field theory. We find that a nonlocal screening (NLS) effect in the XPS final states is crucial for interpreting the experimental XPS result of both the Fe oxides. A close relationship between the NLS feature in core-level spectra and a long-range magnetic ordering is emphasized.
