contents In correlated compounds containing cations in high formal oxidation states (assigned by assuming that anions attain full valence shells), the energy of ligand to cation charge transfer can become small or even negative. This yields compounds with a high degree of covalence and can lead to a self-doping of holes into the ligand states of the valence band. Such compounds are of particular topical interest, as highly studied perovskite oxides containing trivalent nickel or tetravalent iron are negative charge transfer systems, as are nickel-containing lithium ion battery cathode materials. In this report, we review the topic of negative charge transfer energy, with an emphasis on plots and diagrams as analysis tools, in the spirit of the celebrated Tanabe-Sugano diagrams which are the focus of this Special Topics Issue.
