Electron Spectroscopy on Carbon Based Films: Bulk and Interface Properties

  • Chapter
Diamond and Diamond-like Films and Coatings

Part of the book series: NATO ASI Series ((NSSB,volume 266))

Abstract

Photoelectron spectroscopy is one of the most powerful tools in order to analyse the electronic structure of matter. It has been extensively applied to the gas, liquid and solid state phases [1, 2, 3, 4]. Depending on the energy of the incoming photons and the detection mode of the emitted photoelectrons detailed information on the core electrons, dispersion relation E(k) of valence electrons, spin polarisation, local (site decomposed) and partial (angular momentum decomposed) density of electronic states (DOS) can be obtained. From these data many other properties can be determined: elemental composition, chemical state, depth and laterally resolved composition, structural information, Fermi level position, workfunction, magnetic moment and state density of the Fermi energy (E F). The latest developments include the observation of the energy gap in high Tc superconductors [5] and the application of photoelectron diffraction [6].
