Evidence for correlation effects i from resonant and x-ray photoemission spectroscopy

We study the electronic structure of (Formula presented)(Formula presented), a noncuprate layered superconductor ((Formula presented)=0.93 K), using electron spectroscopy. X-ray photoemission spectroscopy shows that the single particle occupied density of states (DOS) is in fair agreement with the calculated DOS. However, resonant photoemission spectroscopy across the Ru 4p-4d threshold establishes the existence of a correlation satellite to the Ru 4d band. The results indicate substantial charge-transfer character at the Fermi level, with on-site correlations (Formula presented) comparable in magnitude to the Ru-O hopping integral, like the cuprates.
