Relation between spin–orbit induced spin polarization, Fano-effect and circular dichroism in soft x-ray photoemission

A Feynman diagram analysis of photoemission probabilities suggests a relation between two final-state spin polarization effects, the optical spin-orientation originating from the interaction with circularly polarized light ([Formula: see text], Fano effect) and the spin polarization induced by the spin-orbit scattering ([Formula: see text], Mott effect). The analysis predicts that [Formula: see text] is proportional to the product of [Formula: see text] and the circular dichroism in the angular distribution (CDAD) of photoelectrons. To confirm this prediction, the spin polarization of photoelectrons excited by soft x-ray radiation from initial spin-degenerate bulk states of tungsten using t…

Single-Hemisphere Photoelectron Momentum Microscope With Time-of-Flight Recording

Photoelectron momentum microscopy is an emerging powerful method for angle-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy (ARPES), especially in combination with imaging spin filters. These instruments record kx-ky images, typically exceeding a full Brillouin zone. As energy filters double-hemispherical or time-of-flight (ToF) devices are in use. Here we present a new approach for momentum mapping of the full half-space, based on a single hemispherical analyzer (path radius 225 mm). Excitation by an unfocused He lamp yielded an energy resolution of 7.7 meV. The performance is demonstrated by k-imaging of quantum-well states in Au and Xe multilayers. The alpha-square-aberration term (alpha: entrance an…

In-situ study of multi-phase indium nanoparticle growth on/into CuPcF4 organic thin film in ultra-high vacuum conditions

Abstract We study the in-situ growth of a nanocomposite material consisting of a thin CuPcF4 film and multiphase/multidimensional indium nanoparticles, self-organizing on the surface and in the bulk, at various stages of thermal deposition of metal on an organic film under ultrahigh vacuum conditions. The analysis of high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HR-TEM) images provided valuable information about the evolution of morphology, size, density, and distribution of indium nanoparticles upon indium deposition. These 2D/3D ultra-small nano-objects turned out to have not only body-centered tetragonal (bct) crystal structure, typical for bulk indium, but also unusual face-centered…

Exchange Splitting of a Hybrid Surface State and Ferromagnetic Order in a 2D Surface Alloy

Surface alloys are highly flexible materials for tailoring the spin-dependent properties of surfaces. Here, we study the spin-dependent band structure of a DyAg$_2$ surface alloy formed on an Ag(111) crystal. We find a significant exchange spin-splitting of the localized Dy 4f states pointing to a ferromagnetic coupling between the localized Dy moments at $40\,$K. The magnetic coupling between these moments is mediated by an indirect, RKKY-like exchange coupling via the spin-polarized electrons of the hole-like Dy-Ag hybrid surface state.

Noble metal nanoparticles in organic matrix

Abstract The purpose of this work is the synthesis and study of the properties of nanocomposite structures created by noble metal (silver) nanoparticles (NP's), an exciting class of materials with unique properties differ from both bulk and atomic behavior, which are self-organize in a thin organic film of copper phthalocyanine (CuPc). The structure and morphology of this material, depending on the amount of deposited silver, was studied in ultrahigh vacuum using transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and photoelectron spectroscopy (PES). Metallic atoms deposited on the surface of an organic substrate diffuse into the substrate, forming NPs with a narrow size distribution, which correlates …
