摘要
X-ray absorption spectroscopy measurements in Pr0.5Ca0.5CoO3 and (Pr,Y)(0.55)Ca0.45CoO3 compositions reveal that the valence of praseodymium ions is stable and essentially +3 (Pr [4f(2)]) in the metallic state, but abruptly changes when carriers localize approaching the oxidation state +4 (Pr [4f(1)]). This mechanism appears to be the driving force of the metal-insulator transition. The ground insulating state of Pr0.5Ca0.5CoO3 is a homogeneous Co3.5-delta state stabilized by a charge transfer from Pr to Co sites: 1/2 Pr3+ +Co-3.5 --> 1/2 Pr3+2 delta +Co3.5-delta, with 2 delta approximate to 0.26e(-).
