Abstract
Binding energies for the core levels of scandium metal and its oxide and hydride are recorded. Plasmon energy-loss peaks are observed for the metal and show a large shift on hydriding, approximately 3.7 eV, compared with a shift of approximately 0.2 eV for the 2p core levels. The large plasmon shift is consistent with the view that scandium forms a metallic hydride in which the H 1s electrons contribute to the Sc valence band.Keywords
