Abstract

A measure of the Mn 3d partial density of states (DOS) of NiAs-type MnTe has been obtained from resonant photoemission experiments in the Mn 3p-3d core excitation region. On the basis of an analysis of the Mn 3d partial DOS spectrum in terms of a configuration interaction on a Mn2+ (Te 2-)6 model cluster, we find that the spectral intensities in the top 6 eV are predominantly due to transitions to the d5L, final-state configuration, where L represents a ligand hole. On the other hand, those at 6-14 eV originate mainly from transitions to the d4 configuration.
