AbstractOn the basis of new experimental results a previous proposed correlation between the optical band gap of oxides and the difference of electronegativity of their constituents is extended to mixed crystalline and amorphous TiO2-Fe2O3 (d,d-metal oxides) as well as to amorphous passive films grown on Al-Ta, Al-Ti, Al-Nb and Al-W alloys (sp,d-metal oxides). Moreover in analogy with previous results on anhydrous oxides, a correlation is proposed between the optical band gap of hydroxides and the electronegativities of their constituents after substituting the electronegativity of hydroxilic group to that of the oxygen. Like in the case of anhydrous oxides, two different interpolation lines have been found for sp-metal and d-metal hydroxides, respectively.

AbstractIn this paper, we discuss the change in the band gap of charge transfer insulators for different surface terminations. We have calculated the Madelung potential of the unreconstructed (100) surfaces of the rocksalt structured TM-O compounds (TM = Mn, Fe, Co and Ni). We also considered possible step defects on a (100) surface. The presented results are calculated in both the purely ionic case (TM2+O2−) and in the strong ligand p - cation 4s, phybridization (TM1+O1−) case. In both cases the charge transfer gap, Δ, for the surface is reduced compared to the bulk value. As a consequence of this reduction there is a large increase of the surface superexchange interaction, Jsur, and a decrease of the band gap.
