Abstract

We identify contributions to the valence band of the nanosized BaFe_12−2xCo_xTi_xO₁₉ barium ferrite particles, from the cobalt and titanium dopants. Resonant photoemission results show that cobalt and titanium dopants strongly hybridize with the barium ferrite matrix. Fano resonances are identified in the valence band region, at the Ba (5s), Ti (3p) and Co (3p) thresholds, and there are significant contributions to the density of states, residing within 2 eV of the Fermi level, from barium and/or iron.
