We study the electronic structure of the LaMO[sub 3] (M = Ti-Ni) perovskite oxides as probed by various high-energy electron spectroscopies. These spectroscopic studies, in conjunction with model many-body calculations, provide important information concerning the ground state character of these oxides. In particular, the on-site Coulomb interaction strength, U[sub dd], the charge transfer energy, [Delta], and the transfer integral between the metal 3d and oxygen 2p states, t, have been estimated. These parameters are found to exhibit a systematic variation across the series. Electronic structure of the perovskites is discussed in terms of electron-removal and electron-addition spectra for the parent compound as well as for doped LaMO[sub 3], with specific reference to semiconductor-metal transitions.
