Abstract
We studied the changes in the electronic structure of induced by 10% Ga substitution. The technique used in the study was and X-ray absorption spectroscopy. The spectra were analyzed using atomic multiplet and band structure calculations. The spectra show that the Co ions in are in a trivalent low-spin state, and that the electronic structure of the Co ions is not greatly affected by 10% Ga substitution. The Co ions remain in the trivalent low-spin state in chemically deintercalated . This shows that the Co ions in deintercalated are not oxidized to a tetravalent state. The spectra are dominated by transitions to mixed states at threshold. The transitions to states appears well above threshold due to the larger hybridization. The spectra of deintercalated show an increase in the absorption intensity at threshold. The increased absorption intensity indicates that the ions are oxidized in deintercalated . The results and conclusions obtained for deintercalated are similar to those for ; this shows that the Ga substitution does not significantly affect the charge transfer mechanism in .
