Abstract Total and partial densities of states of substoichiometric cubic MoN x have been calculated for several concentrationsx by means of the KKR-CPA method. There are significant differences to the results of Papaconstantopoulos and Pickett [1] obtained by the LCAO-CPA method. In particular, the concentration dependence of the DOS at the Fermi energy is quite different. Using the single-scatterer final-state approximation, Al−Kα-XPS spectra have been calculated. It is found that the first peak in the valence band spectra is due mainly to metal-p rather than nonmetal-p states. The vacancy states in the DOS of substoichiometric MoN x give also rise to an additional peak in the XPS spectra.
