Abstract

The electronic structure of protonic conductor SrZr_1-xM _xO_3-δ (M = Y³⁺, Sc³⁺) has been studied by soft-X-ray spectroscopy. The valence band is mainly composed of O 2p state. The conduction band is composed of Zr 4d state. The holes and the acceptor level are observed at the top of valence band and just above the Fermi level (E_F), respectively. In H₂-annealed SrZr _1-xM_xO_3-δ (M = Y³⁺, Sc ³⁺), their intensities decrease and the hydrogen-induced level is created at just below E_F. The energy separation between the bottom of the hydrogen-induced level and the top of valence band agrees with the activation energy estimated from the electrical conductivity.
