Resonant Photoemission Study of Mn 3d Electrons Contribution to the Pb$\text{}_{0.92}$Mn$\text{}_{0.08}$Se Valence Band

The resonant photoemission spectroscopy was applied to investigate the valence band electronic structure of semimagnetic semiconductor Pb$\text{}_{0.92}$Mn$\text{}_{0.08}$Se crystal and to determine the contribution of Mn 3d electrons to the valence band. The set of energy distribution curves and constant initial states spectra were taken for by energies in the region (40-60 eV) close to the Mn 3p-3d transition. The electrons Mn 3d hybridize and contribute to the valence band electrons of the crystal and main density of states contribution appears in the energy 3.5 ± 0.2 eV below the valence band edge.
