    Description

    https://doi.org/10.25957/flinders.nanoesca3

    The NanoESCA III Photoemission Electron Microscope (PEEM) images surfaces by focussing and detecting electrons emitted from a material following irradiation with UV and X-ray light. The primary capabilities include spatial mapping of the surface morphology, elemental and chemical compositions and the electron band-structure of the materials.

    Key instrument capabilities:
    • PEEM energy-filtered imaging (<50nm lateral resolution)
    • Small-spot XPS (FOV ~180μm)
    • XPS imaging (XPEEM)
    • ARPES
    • Liquid helium cooled sample stage
    o Sample temperatures in the range 20-400 K.

    Here we have multiple light sources available:
    • Hg (244-254 nm; 4.9-5.1eV)
    • HeI (21.2eV) [HIS 14 HD VUV]
    • HeII (40.8eV) [HIS 14 HD VUV]
    • monochromated X-rays
    o Al Kα (1486 eV) to probe the valance and core-level structure of materials.

    Sample preparation module:
    • Low-energy electron diffraction (LEED) - BDL600IR-LMX, OCI Vacuum Microengineering Inc.
    • Sample cleaning through ion sputtering (Ion Source IS 40C1, PREVAC)
    • Crystal cleaving in-vacuo
    • Sample heating/cooling in manipulator (120-880 K)
