The crystal structure, chemical bonding and magnetic properties of the intercalation compounds Cr$_x$ZrTe$_2$ ($x$ = 0-0.3)

New intercalation compounds Cr$_x$ZrTe$_2$ were synthesized in the Cr concentration range of x=0-0.3. A thorough study of the crystal and electronic structure has been performed. It was found that there is competition in the distribution of the Cr atoms over the octa- and tetrahedral sites in the van der Waals gap, depending on the Cr content. The ordering of the Cr atoms was found at x = 0.25; at the same time, the lattice symmetry decreases from trigonal P-3m1 to monoclinic F2/m. This ordering stabilizes the octahedral coordination of the Cr atoms by Te atoms. The analysis of the experimental data on the electronic structure and DOS calculations showed that the Cr 3d states are spin-split.

The electronic structure formation of CuxTiSe2 in a wide range (0.04 < x < 0.8) of copper concentration

An experimental study of the electronic structure of copper intercalated titanium dichalcogenides in a wide range of copper concentrations (x = 0.05 - 0.6) using the x-rays photoemission spectroscopy, resonant photoemission and x-rays absorption spectroscopy has been performed. Negative energy shifts of the Ti 2p and Se 3d core levels spectra and a corresponding decrease of the photon energy in Ti 2p absorption spectra with increasing concentration of copper have been found. Such sign-anomalous shifts may be explained by the shielding effect of the corresponding atomic shells as a result of the dynamic charge transfer during the formation of a covalent chemical bond between the copper atoms and the TiSe2 matrix.

MxTiSe2 (M = Cr, Mn, Cu) electronic structure study by methods of resonant X-ray photoemission spectroscopy and X-Ray absorption spectroscopy

Electronic structure and chemical bonding in TiX2 (X=S, Se, Te), TMxTiSe2 (TM=Cr, Mn, Cu) and CrxTi1-xSe2 were studied by x-ray resonance photoemission and absorption spectroscopy. These methods are detected to be strong sensitive to chemical bonding. Charge transfer from the intercalated atoms to Ti 3d band is detected. Narrow Ti 3d and Cu 3d bands are observed under Fermi level in CuxTiSe2.
