Abstract
Soft and hard X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (PES) has been performed for one of the heavy fermion system CeRuSi and a -localized ferromagnet CeRuGe in the paramagnetic phase. The three-dimensional band structures and Fermi surface (FS) shapes of CeRuSi have been determined by soft X-ray -dependent angle resolved photoelectron spectroscopy (ARPES). The differences in the Fermi surface topology and the non- electronic structures between CeRuSi and CeRuGe are qualitatively explained by the band-structure calculation for both itinerant and localized models, respectively. The Ce valences in CeRu ( = Si, Ge) at 20 K are quantitatively estimated by the single impurity Anderson model calculation, where the Ce 3d hard X-ray core-level PES and Ce 3d X-ray absorption spectra have shown stronger hybridization and signature for the partial contribution to the conduction electrons in CeRuSi.
