Abstract
We have investigated the electronic structure of a double perovskite Ca2FeReO6 using photoemission spectroscopy and LDA+U band-structure calculations. Small spectral weight at the Fermi level observed above the metal-insulator transition temperature, gradually disappears with decreasing T, forming a small (≤50 meV) energy gap. To reproduce this small energy gap, we require a very large effective U (Ueff) for Re (4 eV) in addition to Ueff of 4 eV for Fe. From simple calculations in terms of the ionic radii, we demonstrate that the Fe-Re bandwidth is smaller than that of Fe-Mo in Ca2FeMoO6, which should yield a strong electron correlation in the Re 5d bands.
