  12. X-Ray Absorption Spectroscopy (XAS, NEXAFS, XANES) • Photon energy h related to: • Core level  Element • Valence orbital  Bonding

  13. Detection Modes: Electron and Fluorescence Yield Empty states • Detect the absorption of photons indirectly by looking at the decay products: • Fluorescence Yield (FY): Bulk sensitive (100-1000 nm) • Total Electron Yield (TEY): Surface sensitive (≈5nm)

  19. Time-resolved X-Ray Absorption spectroscopy These measurements provide information about spin excitations with about 100 picoseconds (ps) time resolution. To see atomic vibrations one would need <100 femtoseconds (fs) time resolution, to follow electrons in real time about 1 fs. The velocity of electrons in a metal is about 1 nm/fs at the Fermi level.

  24. Mapping the Density of States (DOS) by STS The density of states is given the differential conductance dI/dV: DOS  Explanation: For small bias voltages («1V) and for a metallic tip the density of occupied tip states can be approximated by a step function. In an I(V) scan this tip DOS Dtip is swept past the sample DOS Dspl . Such a sweep corresponds to a convolution (represented by a star): I(E)  Dtip* Dspl= Dtip(E-E’)· Dspl(E’) dE’ E = e·V The derivative of a convolution is the convolution with the derivative, and the derivative of the step function is the -function. Convolution of a function with the -function replicates this function. The result is that dI/dV is proportional to the sample DOS. The derivative is obtained by modulating the sample voltage sinusoidally and picking up the oscillating component of the current with a lock-in amplifier. Electronic noise at all other frequencies is filtered out. dI/dV I/V

  25. Density of States from STS,Photoemission and Inverse Photoemission • The Si(111)7x7 surface (the most stable surface of silicon) has two types of broken (“dangling”) bonds: • Adatoms trade 3 broken bonds for one (yellow). • Rest atoms are part of the original truncated silicon surface (red). • An electron is transferred from adatoms to a rest atom and thereby completely fills its broken bond or-bital, producing a stable lone pair.

  27. Cu Mo Caveat: Sample and Tip are Involved Equally An atom jumping onto the STM tip and back reverses the contrast between Cu and Mo. Contrast reversal between Cu and Mo by changing the tunnel voltage.
