Spin polarization and angular distribution of Auger electrons formed as a result of decay of the 3<Emphasis Type="Italic">d</Emphasis><Superscript>−1</Superscript>5<Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis> state in the Kr atom

The results of numerical calculations of the energies of Auger transitions, as well as the angular distribution (α₂) and spin polarization (β₂) anisotropy parameters, are presented for transitions in a photoexcited Kr* atom with two open shells. Matrix elements are calculated by the multiconfigurational Fock-Dirac relativistic method using an intermediate type of coupling. The wavefunctions of the initial and final states of the Auger transition are calculated with allowance for relaxation effects. The one-electron wavefunction of the continuous spectrum for an Auger electron is obtained using the single-configuration Fock-Dirac method. The results are compared with experiment and a new experiment is proposed for identifying the Auger state not only from the energy, but also from the total angular momentum of the Auger state.     

Storage of Entangled States with Multiple Trapped Ions in Thermal Motion

This paper presents an alternative scheme to realize the storage of entangled states for multiple trapped ions including W state, Bell states, and GHZ states even with ions which exchange vibrational energy with a heating surrounding. Our scheme requires that the ions be simultaneously excited by two laser beams with different frequencies.In this scheme the vibrational degrees of freedom are only regarded as intermediate states and the ions exchange energy via the mediation of the vibration of the vibrational mode in coupling processes. The scheme is insensitive to both the initial vibrational state and heating if the system remains in the Lamb-Dicke regime. Since the effective Rabi frequency has a small dependence on the vibrational quantum number the heating will have no direct effect on the internal state evolution.     

Low energy Auger and loss electron spectra from magnesium and its oxide

Data have been obtained from Auger and energy loss processes in clean metallic Mg, Mg during stages of oxidation, and UHV cleaved MgO(100) surfaces. Particular attention has been paid to twenty features below 200 eV in the Auger spectra from these surfaces. A comparison of spectra from the metal, oxidised metal surface, and single crystal MgO has enabled estimates to be made of surface charging effects, and the MgO steady state surface potential is found to be near + 10 V above ground. All the Auger features are given assignments, two of which are interfacial processes involving ionic initial states and metallic final states. Several features in the low energy Auger spectrum are attributed to diffraction of true secondary electrons.

O 1s --> sigma* resonance in O2: inadequacy of only two exchange-split components

The O 1s-->sigma* transition below the O K-edge in O2 has been investigated by absorption, constant ionic state (CIS) experiments, and extensive configuration interaction calculations. CIS scans of the three lowest-lying final states reached in resonant Auger decay provide a wealth of information on energy range, symmetry, and spin multiplicity of the intermediate states with sigma* character. We conclude that the identification of only two exchange-split components is inadequate because a complex manifold of states with sigma* character exists with no unique energy difference between related states.     

On the satellite in the Auger electron spectrum

The satellite line profile in the C–VV Auger electron spectroscopy spectrum depends upon how the initial core hole state and the final multiple hole state are created. Even if the numbers of the holes in the satellite states are the same, the Auger electron spectroscopy spectral profiles of the final multiple hole states are different. The localization of the three hole satellite state is discussed.     

Experimental evidence for molecular ultrafast dissociation in O<Subscript>2</Subscript> clusters

Resonant Auger spectra of O₂ clusters excited at the O1s edge are reported. After excitation to the repulsive 1s^-13σ^* state, the resulting resonant Auger spectrum displays features that remain constant in kinetic energy as the photon energy is detuned. The shift between known atomic fragment features and these features is consistent with that observed for atoms and clusters in singly charged states in direct photoemission. These findings are strong evidence for the existence of molecular ultrafast dissociation processes within the clusters or on their surface.     

N23-core losses and autoionization emissions of clean and oxygen exposed zirconium

The electron energy loss spectra associated with N₂₃-excitation and the low energy N₂₃VV Auger emission have been studied for both the clean and oxygen exposed zirconium. In the high energy side of the N₂₃VV Auger spectrum, autoionization emission of electrons of the valence band due to the decay of 4p electrons excited to states ≈9eV above the Fermi level has been identified. The excitation process can be also observed in the electron energy loss spectra. This is the first time that an autoionization feature is observed in a electron excited Auger spectrum of a 4d transition metal.     

The initial oxidation of Cu(100) single crystal surfaces: an electron spectroscopic investigation

The total energy distribution of electrons emitted from clean Cu(100) and oxygen covered surfaces is analysed. A primary electron energy of 400 eV enabled the investigation of characteristic losses (ELS), Cu MVV Auger transitions and true secondary electrons in a single spectroscopic run. Oxygen exposure up to 10⁸ L at elevated temperature (~400 K) results in a Cu density of states (DOS) strongly affected by O(2p) electrons. The Auger lines of Cu, atomic-like for clean surfaces, reveal DOS effects after some 10⁷ L oxygen exposure: all MVV transitions shift down by ~2 eV in spite of a fixed M₂₃ level; the M₂₃VV Auger line splitting is vanishing due to a broadened valence band maximum allowing the deexcitation of the final two-hole state of intraatomic transitions. Heating the oxygen covered crystal to 820 K is accompanied by the removal of much surface oxygen and an electronic state resembling an earlier oxidation state without DOS effects in the Cu Auger spectrum.     

ELECTRONIC STRUCTURE STUDIES OF THE C60 FILM CONDENSED ON 2H-MoS2(0001) SURFACE

The electronic structure and vibrational spectrum of the C₆₀ film condensed on a 2H- MoS₂(0001) surface have been investigated by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), ul-traviolet photoelectron spectroscopy (UPS), Auger electron spectroscopy (AES) and infrared high-resolution electron-energy-loss spectroscopy (HREELS). AES analysis showed that at low energy side of the main transition, C₆₀ contains a total of three peaks just like that of graphite. However, the energy position of the KLL main Auger transition of C₆₀ looks like that of diamond, indicating that the hybridization of the carbon atoms in C₆₀ is not strictly in sp²- bonded state but that the curvature of the molecular surface introduces some sp²pz- bonded character into the molecular orbitals. XPS showed that the C 1s binding energy in C₆₀ was 285.0eV, and its main line was very symmetric and offered no indication of more than a single carbon species. In UPS measurement the valence band spectrum of C₆₀ within 10eV below the Fermi level (E_F) shows a very distinct five-band structure that character-izes the electronic structure of the C₆₀ molecule. HREEL results showed that the spectrum obtained from the C₆₀ film has very rich vibrational structure. At least, four distinct main loss peaks can be identified below 200 meV. The most intense loss was recorded at 66 meV, and relatively less intense losses were recorded at 95, 164 and 197meV at a primary energy of electron beam E_P = 2.0eV. The other energy-loss peaks at 46, 136, 157 and 186meV in HREEL spectrum are rather weak. These results have been compared to infrared spectrum data of the crystalline solid C₆₀ taken from recent literatures.     

The photodetachment spectrum of OHF−: the influence of vibration at a transition state

New ab initio potential energy functions for collinear OHF^? and OHF have been used with time-dependent wavepacket studies in a simulation of the photodetachment spectrum of the OHF^? anion. Franck—Condon excitation of OHF^? lies within the transition state region for the bimolecular reaction F + OH ? O + HF on the lowest triplet surface. The branching ratios for fragmentation of the excited OHF are such that the peaks in this spectrum may each be correlated with dissociation to a single vibrational state of the O + HF(v) or OH(v) + F products. The possible influence of vibrational excitation of the anion has been explored also. This is predicted to lead to marked changes in the spectra. Experimental observations of such spectra could be used in refinement of the potential as could an experiment in which the electron kinetic energy is detected in coincidence with the vibrational states of the molecular products or with the kinetic energy of the atomic products. The calculations revealed a number of metastable resonances on the OHF surface, although these are all at higher energies than are relevant to the photodetachment spectrum from the ground state anion.     

M4,5N4,5N4,5 auger electron spectrum of Ba metal

The Al Kα excited M_4,5N_4,5N_4,5 Auger spectrum of Ba has been measured from the metallic sample evaporated on a Ag substrate. The spectrum has been decomposed into individual line components after the background subtraction. The decomposed spectrum has been compared with the theoretical spectrum calculated for the 4d^?2 final state configuration in the mixed coupling scheme applying jj-coupling for the initial state and intermediate coupling for the final state. The most prominent structure of the spectrum shows the two 4d-hole coupling, but the structure which is caused by the Auger transitions M_,45N_2,3V has also been observed. The screening of the core holes in Ba metal seems to be produced by (5d6s) electrons. The simple excited atom model HF-calculations give an Auger kinetic energy shift (metal-free atom) of 16.7 eV, which is comparable to the experimental value 14–18 eV.     

Many-electron effects in the Auger-photoelectron coincidence spectroscopy spectra of the late 3d-transition metals

The valence hole created by the L2–L3 M45 Coster–Kronig (CK) transition may hop away from the ionized atomic site before the L3-hole decays. Then when the third (Auger) electron emitted by the L3-hole decay is measured in coincidence with the photoelectron emitted by the initial L2-level electron ionization, the coincidence spectrum becomes similar or identical to the singles spectrum of the secondary (Auger) electron emitted by the L3-hole decay as if it decayed as an initial single core hole. Thus the coincidence spectrum is essentially governed by the valence-hole dynamics of both the intermediate states and the final states of the L2–L3 (M45) CK-transition preceded Auger transition. In the present paper the Auger-photoelectron coincidence spectroscopy (APECS) spectra of Fe, Co, and Ni metals reported by C.P. Lund et al. (Phys. Rev. B55 (1997) 5455) are analyzed in light of the delocalization and localization of the valence hole(s) created by the CK transition or the CK-transition preceded Auger transition.

On the ‘plasmon energy gain’ in the Be Auger spectrum

The Auger spectrum and the high energy satellite structure from evaporated Be films were investigated. There was no evidence of a plasmon gain peak 18 eV above the main Be KVV Auger peak, in disagreement with the observation of Jenkins and Zehner.¹ The high energy satellite peaks associated with the Auger peaks must be interpreted on the basis of double ionization of the initial state.     

Analysis of Rovibrational Resonances Observed in the Microwave Spectrum of FCCCN

Microwave spectrum of fluorocyanoacetylene (FCCCN) produced by a glow discharge in pentafluorobenzonitrile (C6F5CN) was observed using a source modulation spectrometer with a free-space absorption cell. Rotational transitions in the range from J = 9-8 to 53-52 were observed for the vibrationally excited states of nu4 (C&sbond;C stretch), nu5 (CCN bend), nu6 (FCC bend), nu7 (CCC bend), and their associated overtone and combination states up to about 1000 cm-1. Most of the vibrational states above 500 cm-1 are perturbed by rovibrational resonances. The effective vibration-rotation constant of the nu4 state has a negative value (-0.4 MHz), although a vibration-rotation constant generally has a positive value in the excited state of the stretching vibrational mode in a linear molecule. This anomalous behavior is interpreted as due to the rovibrational resonances between the nu4 and several nearby states. By the simultaneous analysis of the states concerned, the unperturbed vibrational energy and rotational constant of the nu4 state are obtained to be 686.50(76) cm-1 and 2068.2387(21) MHz, respectively, where the uncertainties correspond to one standard deviation.
