2pcorrelation satellites in neon clusters investigated by photoemission

Capture of neon atoms by 4He clusters.

Spin-resolved photoemission of valence-band satellites of Ni

Spin-resolved photoemission spectra of 6-, 9-, and 13-eV satellites of the ferromagnetic Ni valence band are reported. The spin polarization of the valence-band satellites and their photon energy dependence are interpreted by the multiplet configuration of 3d and 3d final states. This implies the localization of a photoexcited final state reflecting the strong electron correlation in Ni. @S0163...

Quantum size effects in Pb/Si„111... investigated by laser-induced photoemission

We use laser-induced photoemission spectroscopy at 6 eV photon energy to investigate quantum well states of epitaxial Pb films on Si 111 as function of film thickness. The binding energies of the quantum well states were found in good agreement with density-functional calculations for a freestanding Pb slab. An oscillation of the work function with a period of 2 ML was observed as a function of...

Interatomic Coulombic decay cascades in multiply excited neon clusters

In high-intensity laser light, matter can be ionized by direct multiphoton absorption even at photon energies below the ionization threshold. However on tuning the laser to the lowest resonant transition, the system becomes multiply excited, and more efficient, indirect ionization pathways become operative. These mechanisms are known as interatomic Coulombic decay (ICD), where one of the specie...

Doping dependence of an n-type cuprate superconductor investigated by angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy.

We present an angle-resolved photoemission doping dependence study of the n-type cuprate superconductor Nd(2-x)Ce(x)CuO(4+/-delta), from the half-filled Mott insulator to the T(c) = 24 K superconductor. In Nd2CuO4, we reveal the charge-transfer band for the first time. As electrons are doped into the system, this feature's intensity decreases with the concomitant formation of near- E(F) spectra...
