There are very important characteristics of partial substitution of the cations at both A and B sites in ABO(3) perovskite structure. In this report, SrFeO(3-delta) (SFO) photocatalyst powder was synthesized by a high temperature solid state reaction method. The morphology and crystalline structure of the obtained samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The XRD, TEM and SAED patterns indicated that a single cubic perovskite phase of SrFeO(3-delta) (SFO) oxide has been successfully synthesized. The surface composition of the SrFeO((3-delta))sample was characterized by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The XPS results showed that the iron existing in the SrFeO(3-delta) perovskite structure is composed of a mixture of Fe3+ and Fe4+. Due to the high absorbance of the SrFeO(3-delta) powder, the Kubelka-Munk model and UV-visible measurement were not applicable. Therefore, in order to study the band positions further, the valence band edges for electronic band gaps were obtained for SrFeO(3-delta) by ultraviolet photoelectron spectroscopy (UPS) while the conduction band position was obtained by photovoltage method.
