Spin-Orbit-Induced Spin Textures of Unoccupied Surface States on Tl/Si(111)

Part of the book series: Springer Theses ((Springer Theses))

  • 318 Accesses

Abstract

In the center of this thesis lies the unoccupied surface state of Tl/Si(111)-(1\(\times \)1) and its spin texture. Experimental access to the unoccupied surface state is obtained via spin- and angle-resolved inverse photoemission. To shed light onto the spin texture, which forms complex patterns in momentum space, one of the project’s main objectives has been to implement 3D spin analysis in the SR-IPE experiment to get access to all components of the spin polarization.
