Intra-atomic versus interatomic process in resonant Auger spectra at the TiL23edges in rutile
2001
The two components of the Ti ${L}_{23}{M}_{23}V$ Auger transition recorded on a stoichiometric rutile crystal are identified as ${L}_{2}{M}_{23}V$ and ${L}_{3}{M}_{23}V$ contributions. This assignment is evidenced by concordant data relative to resonances of the LMV decay at the Ti ${L}_{23}$ thresholds and to Auger emission recorded in coincidence with the ${2}_{1/2}$ and ${2}_{3/2}$ photoemission at a photon energy far above the Ti ${L}_{23}$ edges. The ${L}_{3}{M}_{23}V$ transition is shown to follow either the direct photoexcitation of a ${2}_{3/2}$ electron or the fast Coster-Kronig decay of a ${2}_{1/2}$ photohole. Although specific LMV contributions related to valence orbitals are id…
Photoemission from Pt(111)-(hex)-Rb and Pt(111)-(4×1)-RbO using polarised synchrotron radiation
2001
Abstract In various experiments it has been demonstrated that the circular dichroism in the angular distribution of photoelectrons (CDAD) is not only observed from oriented initial states (aligned adsorbed molecules or magnetised samples), but also arises as a consequence of the scattering of photoelectrons from the surrounding atoms in a solid or an adsorbate. In this work we will show first measurements performed at the SGM beamline of the Brazilian Synchrotron Light Source (LNLS) on a (4×1) superstructure of 1 ML RbO adsorbed on Pt(111). Measurements from the 4s core levels of Rb adsorbed at Pt(111) were also performed at the PM-III beamline at BESSY. The measured variations of the inten…
Numerical procedures and their practical application in PV modules’ analyses. Part II: Useful fractions and APE
2019
Abstract The article regards aspects of PV modules tested with the use of natural sunlight. The analysis of spectral structure of solar energy resources in southern Poland, carried out on the basis of meteorological data originating from SolarLab PW Wroclaw and AGH Krakow, Poland [ 1 ] was used in the article. It is a continuation of the article: Analysis of solar energy resources in southern Poland for photovoltaic applications [ 1 ], describing the method to determine spectral parameters of average photon energy (APE) and useful fraction (UF) with the use of a solar radiation spectrum simulator. This article, however, includes an experimental presentation of their impact on PV conversion …
Studies of plasma breakdown and electron heating on a 14 GHz ECR ion source through measurement of plasma bremsstrahlung
2011
Temporal evolution of plasma bremsstrahlung emitted by a 14?GHz electron cyclotron resonance ion source (ECRIS) operated in pulsed mode is presented in the energy range 1.5?400?keV with 100??s resolution. Such a high temporal resolution together with this energy range has never been measured before with an ECRIS. Data are presented as a function of microwave power, neutral gas pressure, magnetic field configuration and seed electron density. The saturation time of the bremsstrahlung count rate is almost independent of the photon energy up to 100?keV and exhibits similar characteristics with the neutral gas balance. The average photon energy during the plasma breakdown is significantly highe…

Controlling laser assisted radiative recombination with few-cycle laser pulses
2006
We report on the radiative recombination of a free electron with a hydrogenic ion in the presence of a few-cycle pulses. It has been shown that the main features of the emission spectra may be described in the framework of a semiclassical model in which the recombination is viewed as a two-step process. The spectra width of the emitted photon energy is practically confined in a range of values in which the emission is classically allowed. Moreover, it has been found that spectra width can be controlled by varying the carrier envelope phase and/or the pulse peak intensity.
Photo fragmentation of metal clusters stored in a penning trap
1996
Photo fragmentation studies of stored mass selected metal cluster ions of a large size range are reported. The experimental method and the data evaluation are described in detail. Gold cluster ions were produced by laser vaporization and stored in a Penning trap. After size selection they were electronically excited by irradiation with a pulsed laser beam. Relaxation by evaporation of neutral atoms and dimers was observed as a function of photon energy. From these data upper and lower limits for dissociation energies are determined for Aun + (n=3 to 23).
Generation of defects in amorphous SiO(2) assisted by two-step absorption on impurity sites.
2011
Generation of the Si dangling bond defect in amorphous SiO(2) (E' centre) induced by tunable pulsed UV laser radiation was investigated by in situ optical absorption measurements. The defect generation efficiency peaks when the photon energy equals ∼5.1 eV, it depends quadratically on laser intensity and is correlated with the native linear absorption due to Ge impurities. We propose a model in which the generation of E' is assisted by a two-step absorption process occurring on Ge impurity sites.
Analysis of spectral irradiance distribution for PV applications at high latitude
2020
The spectral distribution of global tilted irradiance measured in Grimstad, Norway, is analyzed in terms of the average photon energy ( $APE$ ) blue fraction ( $BF$ ) and useful fraction ( $UF$ ). The results based on eight months of recorded data show a general shift of the $APE,\ BF$ , and $UF$ values to higher values than reference AM1.5G spectrum, with 1.63 eV, 0.45, and 0.88 being the average indices, respectively. The statistical coefficient of variation ( $CV$ ) is used to determine the variation of indices. The $CV$ for $APE,\ BF$ , and $UF$ are calculated to be 20.1%, 26.1%, and 25.7%, respectively confirming the earlier findings on $APE$ being a more accurate index for the quantif…
Magnetic circular and linear dichroism in VUV-photoemission from thin iron films on W(110)
1996
Abstract We report on two different photoemission techniques for ferromagnetic surfaces: the phenomena of magnetic circular and linear dichroism in the angular distribution of photoelectrons MCDAD and MLDAD. MCDAD had already been studied in detail for different systems. Now we are able to compare our MCDAD results from thin iron films on W(110) to new data from magnetic linear dichroism MLDAD. Both effects (MCDAD and MLDAD) have been studied in the identical photon energy region (up to hv = 36 eV). The results will be discussed with respect to a bandstructure calculation.
