Abstract

The electronic structure of Fe in antiferromagnetic delafossite CuFeO2 were studied by using x-ray absorption fine structure (XAFS) spectroscopy around Fe L3 absorption edge. The fundamental electronic and crystal structures of delafossite CuFeO2 are analyzed with electronic and magnetic behavior of metal iron L and K-edge. Magnetic properties of metal Fe Kedge and L2,3-edges are probed by X-ray Magnetic Circular Dichroism (XMCD) calculations. The calculations are based on different choices of one electron potentials by using the real space multiple scattering method FEFF 8.2 code.
