The test case considered is that of the Si-terminated SiC(0001) sqrt{3}xsqrt{3} surface, which is known experimentally to be insulating. We argue that, due to the Mott-Hubbard phenomenon, spin unpaired electrons in the Si adatom dangling bonds are expected to give rise to a Si-2p core level spectrum with a characteristic three-peaked structure, as seen experimentally. This structure results from the joint effect of intra-atomic exchange, spatial anisotropy, and spin-orbit coupling. Auger intensities are also discussed. | Source: | arXiv, cond-mat/0006261 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
