Abstract
Valence band and core level X-ray photoelectron spectra (XPS) are measured in single-crystal solid solutions Pb1-xBaxTiO3 (x = 0, 0.021, 0.146, 0.24, 0.541, 0.784, 0.906, 1). Valence band densities of states (DOS) and theoretical valence band XPS are calculated for Pb1-xBaxTiO3 (x = 0, 0.12, 0.25, 0.5, 0.875, 1) via the method of multiple electron scattering in real space. Experimental and theoretical valence band XPS are in good agreement. The increase of ionicity of the TiO bonds in Pb1-xBaxTiO3 upon the growth of relative Ba content x is predicted theoretically and shown experimentally using the energy position of the charge transfer satellites in the Ti2p XPS. The increase of Ti2p-spectrum line widths against relative Ba content x is observed.
