In the 1980s, a range of interactions associated with the localized 4f states in rare earth compounds were contemplated, but the extent of their influence on physical properties remained unclear. Consequently, in most instances, these interactions were overlooked, and the standard Anderson model was commonly employed for such compounds. However, our recent investigations have uncovered spectroscopic evidence of a hitherto unrecognized interaction in the mixed-valent TmSe, particularly when subjected to negative pressure (the substitution of Se with Te). Our photoemission results reveal a distinct behavior: the 4f peak, previously considered singular, actually comprises two peaks that progressively separate with increasing the lattice parameter. Moreover, we demonstrate a correlated variation in the hybridization between the 4f states and other states. Consequently, our findings highlight a variable interaction that evolves with lattice expansion, with the bonding character transitioning from 5d to the cation p states. This discovery underscores the necessity of incorporating at least one additional hybridization into the Anderson model to effectively capture the mixed-valent characteristics.
