For instance, transition metals with unfilled p and d orbitals and rareearths with unfilled f orbitals all show multiplet splitting.
Vacancy created by photoionization (unpaired electron left behind (after ionization))couples with a unpaired electron in the originally incompletely filled shell andgenerates splitting of the orbital (p, d or f orbitals).Example: Fe 2 O 3 has 5 unpaired electrons in the 3d shell as shown below.Following photoionization in the 3s shell, there are 2 possible final states.Schematic of Multiplet Splitting following photoionization in Fe 3+ and XPS spectrum
