The probability of charge transfer in layered titanium diselenide between monolayers containing Cr, Mn, and Cu with different concentrations and host lattice TiSe 2 is estimated according to the resonant photoemission data. For this purpose, the Raman-Auger contributions and narrow bands just below the Fermi energy were separated in the valence band spectra. These contributions provide the information about charge transfer. It is shown that the localization of the 3d electrons is typical for Cr and Cu atoms and strongly depends on theirs concentration. In Mn x TiSe 2 , Mn 3d electrons are delocalized and the probability of the charge transfer is the greatest as compared with other compounds under investigation. V C 2013 AIP Publishing LLC.
