研究目的
To improve surface sensitivity of X-ray photoelectron holography (XPH) by the example of Bi2Se3 (111) surface where different coordinations of the same kind of atoms are present in different layers.
研究成果
The study concludes that by using both lower electron kinetic energy and partial analysis of hologram related to grazing angle photoemission, the surface sensitivity of X-ray photoelectron holography can be significantly improved. This approach allows for the visualization of surface relaxation and the minimization of contributions from deeper atomic layers, enabling broader applications of XPH in surface science.
研究不足
The study is limited by the complexity of the experimental setup and the need for careful tuning of the electron kinetic energy to avoid artifacts in the reconstructed image. Additionally, the method requires that the atomic positions of the nearest neighborhood are similar for all the emitters, which may not be the case for all materials.
1：Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The study used X-ray photoelectron holography (XPH) to visualize the coordination of the atom of interest (emitter) on the Bi2Se3 (111) surface. The methodology involved using both lower electron kinetic energy and partial analysis of hologram related to grazing angle photoemission to achieve ultimate surface sensitivity.
2：Sample Selection and Data Sources:
The experiments were carried out for vacuum cleaved Bi2Se3 crystals.
3：List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
A toroidal electron analyzer end station attached to U49-2 PGM1 beamline (BESSY II, Berlin) and p-polarized radiation were used.
4：Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
Complete emission hemisphere measurement required only to rotate azimuth angle 180°. The SPEA-MEM algorithm was applied to reconstruct the atomic structure of the surface layers from the experimentally observed diffraction patterns. Theoretical calculations of the photoelectron holograms were carried out using the Electron Diffraction in Atomic Clusters (EDAC) software.
