TLDR
The 2p 6d feature in the BiL3 spectra has different energies in the semiconducting (0.0≤x < 0.7) and the superconducting (x=0.75) compositions of BaBi1−xPbxO3 as discussed by the authors.
Abstract
The 2p 6d feature in the Bi L3 spectra has different energies in the semiconducting (0.0≤x<0.7) and the superconducting (x=0.75) compositions of BaBi1−xPbxO3. The Bi 4f core level spectrum shows distinct features ascribable to Bi III and Bi V in BaBiO3 and in the semiconducting compositions; the width of the 4f peaks is also considerably larger in these compositions compared to that in BaBi0.25Pb0.75O3, which shows a single sharp Bi 4f feature.

TL;DR: In this paper, a charge disproportionation model was proposed for perovskite oxides, which is based on the X-ray absorption near-edge structure (XANES) measurements at the PbL 3 and BiL 3 edges of BaPb 1− x Bi x O 3−δ (x = 0, δ ≤ 0.2; x = 0.25, 1).

Superconductivity and metal-semiconductor transition in BaPb1-xBixO3

TL;DR: The perovskite solid solutions BaPb1-xBixO3 exhibit unique properties in both metallic and semiconducting phases as discussed by the authors, and it turns out that the high T c originates from extremely strong electron-phonon interaction.
