We studied the effect of charge order in the spin ladder material Sr14−xCaxCu24O41 by means of polarization dependent Near-edge x-ray absorption fine structure measurements at the oxygen K-edge (O1s-NEXAFS). Stoichiometry gives a total hole count per formula unit of 6, and the holes are located mainly in the chains although some fraction does dope the ladders as well. At low doping levels a charge ordering transition, which affects the physical properties of both the doped spin chains and spin ladders, is present. We therefore investigated the temperature dependence of the spectra in order to look for a possible redistribution of holes between the different sites (chains and ladders) in the structure, especially at the charge-order transition. From the low temperature spectra we can clearly exclude that the ladder-doping becomes zero as suggested by other experiments. Nevertheless we observe a strong temperature dependence of the spectra.
