Abstract

We report bulk-sensitive hard X-ray (hνh\nu = 5.95 KeV) core level photoemission spectroscopy (PES) of single crystal V1.98_{1.98}Cr0.02_{0.02}O3_{3} and the high-TcT_c cuprate Bi2_2Sr2_{2}CaCu2_{2}O8+δ_{8+\delta} (Bi2212). V1.98_{1.98}Cr0.02_{0.02}O3_{3} exhibits low binding energy "satellites" to the V 2p2p "main lines" in the metallic phase, which are suppressed in the antiferromagnetic insulator phase. In contrast, the Cu 2p2p spectra of Bi2212 do not show temperature dependent features, but a comparison with soft X-ray PES indicates a large increase in the 2p53d92p^5 3d^9 "satellites" or 3d93d^9 weight in the bulk. Cluster model calculations, including full multiplet structure and a screening channel derived from the coherent band at the Fermi energy, give very satisfactory agreement with experiments.
