(SFMO) and Ba
FeMoO
(BFMO) double perovskites have been investigated using Fe 2p-3d resonant photoemission spectroscopy (PES) and the Cooper minimum in the Mo 4d photoionization cross section. The states close to the Fermi level are found to have a strongly mixed Mo–Fe t
character, indicating that the Fe valence is far from pure 3+. The Fe 2p
x-ray absorption spectroscopy spectra reveal the mixed-valent Fe
–Fe
configurations, and a larger Fe
component for BFMO than for SFMO, suggesting an operative double exchange interaction. The valence-band PES spectra reveal good agreement with the local-spin-density-approximation (LSDA+U) calculation.
