A spin- and angle-resolving photoelectron spectrometer

Rev Sci Instrum. 2010 Mar;81(3):035104. doi: 10.1063/1.3342120.

Abstract

A new type of hemispherical electron energy analyzer that permits angle and spin resolved photoelectron spectroscopy has been developed. The analyzer permits standard angle resolved spectra to be recorded with a two-dimensional detector in parallel with spin detection using a mini-Mott polarimeter. General design considerations as well as technical solutions are discussed and test results from the Au(111) surface state are presented.
