TL;DR: In this paper, the nitrogen vacancy induced states of vanadium nitride have been studied by X-ray emission spectroscopy (XES) and XPS as a function of the nitrogen vacancies concentration.
Abstract: The valence states of vanadium nitride have been studied by X-ray emission spectroscopy (XES) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) as a function of the nitrogen vacancy concentration. Vacancy induced states are observed in the V K emission band (and in the XPS valence band spectrum) ~2eV below the Fermi energy suggesting that the V p states are strongly affected by the presence of nitrogen vacancies. This is confirmed by simulations of XES and XPS spectra from Korringa-Kohn-Rostoker coherent potential approximation densities of states.
