The Change of d-Electron Occupancy of Ni in Ni92Tm8 (Tm=Ta, Nb, Mo, Cr, Mn) Alloys Measured by Electron Energy Loss Spectroscopy

Abstract:

The electron energy loss spectroscopy (EELS) of Ni in Ni92TM8 (TM=Ta, Nb, Mo, Cr, Mn) alloys and pure Ni has been collected. The d-electron occupancy of Ni is measured from the white-line intensity of EELS. It is found that the changes of d-electron occupancy of Ni is very small after alloying.
