Abstract

The electronic structure of the cluster compound alpha-Nb3Cl8 and the intercalated phase beta'-NaNb3Cl8 were examined. The crystal structures of the two compounds were found to consist of layers of interconnected Nb3Cl13 units. Photoelectron spectroscopy and band structure calculations showed well separated sets of Cl 3p levels at lower energy and Nb 4d levels of higher energy.
