Times Cited Count:2 Percentile:12.53(Materials Science, Multidisciplinary)We have performed photoemission and soft X-ray absorption studies of pyrochlore-type Ru oxides, namely, the filling-control system SmCa
Ru
O
and the bandwidth-control system Sm
Bi
Ru
O
, which show insulator-to-metal transition with increasing Ca and Bi concentration, respectively. Core levels and the O 2
valence band in Sm
Ca
Ru
O
show almost the same amount of monotonous upward energy shifts with Ca concentration, which indicates that the chemical potential is shifted downward due to hole doping. The Ru 4
band in Sm
Ca
Ru
O
is also shifted toward the Fermi level (
) with hole doping and the density of states (DOS) at
increases. The core levels in Sm
Bi
Ru
O
, on the other hand, do not show clear energy shifts except for the Ru 3
core level, whose line shape change also reflects the increase of metallic screening with Bi concentration. We observe pronounced spectral weight transfer from the incoherent to the coherent parts of the Ru
band with Bi concentration, which is expected for a bandwidth-control Mott-Hubbard system. The increase of the DOS at
is more abrupt in the bandwidth-control Sm
Bi
Ru
O
than in the filling-control Sm
Ca
Ru
O
, in accordance with a recent theoretical prediction. Effects of charge transfer between the Bi 6
band and the Ru 4
band are also discussed.

Times Cited Count:20 Percentile:61.81(Materials Science, Multidisciplinary)The antiferromagnetic-to-ferromagnetic transition in SrFeCo
O
(
0.15) induced by Co doping has been studied by magnetic circular X-ray dichroism. The orbital and spin magnetic moments of the Fe and Co 3
states under the magenetic field of 2 T are found to show different
dependences: The spin polarization of Fe 3
gradually increases with Co concentration; On the other hand, a large spin polarization of Co 3
is induced already in the antiferromagnetic phase, indicating that the Co moment is nearly fully alligned already in the antiferromagnetic phase. This suggests that the alignment of the Fe magnetic moment in SrFe
Co
O
is induced by interaction with doped Co magnetic moment. Possible formation of ferromagnetic Co rich region is discussed.
