Abstract
We report a photoemission study of the systematics of the 4f electronic structure of a family of rare-earth organic compounds. Resonant photoemission has been used to determine the binding energies of the 4f ground states, relative to those of the ligand orbitals, of a number of rare-earth tris-8-hydroxyquinolines (REQ's). Using an empirical model these results have been extrapolated, to the full series (Ce-Lu) of REQ's. It is found that in all cases, with the possible exception of Ce, the energy of the 4f ground state is less than that of the highest occupied molecular orbital, and therefore individual holes on lanthanide sites will not be stable.
