Abstract
The valence-band structure of single crystals of titanium carbide (TiC) and titanium nitride (TiN) have been studied with angle-integrated photoelectron spectroscopy using , , and synchrotron radiation for excitation. The results are compared with the partial densities of states derived from an augmented-plane-wave band-structure calculation. Peak positions and widths agree fairly well, but the observed intensity modulations with photon energy cannot be interpreted by such a comparison.
