Descripción
We report on a Ni L2,3 edge x-ray absorption spectroscopy study in RNiO₃ perovskites. These compounds exhibit a metal-to-insulator (MI) transition as temperature decreases. The L₃ edge presents a clear splitting in the insulating state, associated to a less hybridized ground state. Using charge transfer multiplet calculations, we establish the importance of the crystal field and 3d spin-orbit coupling to create a mixed-spin ground state. We explain the MI transition in RNiO₃ perovskites in terms of modifications in the Ni³⁺ crystal field splitting that induces a spin transition from an essentially low-spin to a mixed-spin state.
