Abstract: | The surface electronic state on the stepped surface of Cu(755) has been investigated by means of angle-resolved ultraviolet photoelectron spectroscopy using synchrotron radiation(SR-ARUPS). We have observed a free-electron-like surface state below the Fermi level. In spite of the anisotropy of the atomic arrangement due to steps, the surface state is shown to be isotropic since the dispersion profile and the peak shape are almost identical in the directions parallel and perpendicular to the steps. This result makes a clear contrast with the previous SR-ARUPS results on Ni(755) surfaces which have the surface structure similar to Cu(755). Those experimental evidences are discussed based upon the electron configurations of both metal substrates. |
