Important Consideration of IPES: Low Count Rates (Himpsel)
fine structure constant
R = Rydberg Const.
σ(IPES) ~ 10-8 photons/electron: cannot use intense ebeams (sample damage)
σ(PES) ~ 10-3 electrons/photon: can use intense hv sources (synchrotrons)
Bottom line: IPES is not for the impatient, or for unstable samples.
Himpsel: Fermi edge for Ta: resolution ~ 300 meV (~400 meV
for Dowben group): Note Thermal Broadening
Mapping out the conduction band (k|| = 0)
(adopted from Himpsel paper): note slight matrix
element effects on intensities as Ei is varied

et al., PRB 58 (1998) 16396
LEED shows that Si evaporation leads to graphitization at ~ 1400 C.

Graphene/MgO(111) : Angle integrated photoemission, and angleresolved IPES cobmine to show a band gap ! (Kong, et al.)
Why is the π below the σ
feature in the VB, and the
reverse in the CB ?
Answer: at Many k-values,
π is below σ angle
integrated PES gives this
result. At k=0, the π and π*
are closer to EF than σ, σ*,
so IPES yields this result.
We could do ARPES (need
synchrotron, really).
Conclusions:
1. IPES conduction band DOS—k vector resolved only
2. Minor Cross sectional effects
3. Time consuming, low count rates
4. ~Monolayer sensitive
5. PES+IPES can give accurate picture of VB, DOS, and Band
gap formation PES: angle resolved or integrated
6. Spin-resolved versions of both IPES and PES possible.
PES, IPES and surface states of semiconductors
Surface states of semiconductors can be used in reconstruction, or
dangling bonds can have signficant effects—good or bad—in interfacial
device properties.
Surface states usually lie in the band gap—can be affected by dopants

In hydrogenic model, therefore, V(r) = -e2/(4π єL єor)
•єL = 12 for Si big effect!
•Kinetic energy = p2/2m* m* = 0.2 me for bottom of Si CB
•En (Bohr model) = -e4m*/(8 єL2 єo2 h2 n2) n= 1, 2, 3, 4…

magnetic alloys? e.g., Ristoiu, et al. Europhys. Lett. 49 (2000)

Unit cell of NiMnSb
--supposed to have very high
polarization near Fermi level, but
measurements inconsistent
Could surface composition affect this?
Combine spin integrated
photoemission with spin-resolved
inverse photoemission to find out.
Why this combo: spin-integrated
photoemission, spin resolved IPES?

Spin integrated PES used to determine
surface composition
Surface is Sb-rich
Removal of excess surface Sb enhances spin polarization

and annealing
NiMnSb conclusions
--surface magnetization very sensitive to surface
structure
--surface prep therefore critically impacts MTJ
performance
--Need to correlate surface compostion with electronic
and magnetic structure.
Summary
Inverse Photoemission Conduction Band DOS
Can be used in spin-polarized manner spin
polarized electrons
Typically need other surface methods (AES, PES,
LEED….) to monitor surface composition.
