We demonstrate the use of a novel design of a photoelectron microscope in combination to an imaging energy filter for momentum resolved photoelectron detection. Together with a time resolved imaging detector, it is possible to combine spatial, momentum, energy, and time resolution of photoelectrons within the same instrument. The time resolution of this type of energy analyzer can be reduced to below 100 ps. The complete ARUPS pattern of a Cu(111) sample excited with He I, is imaged in parallel and energy resolved up to the photoelectron emission horizon. Excited with a mercury light source (h nu=4.9 eV), the Shockley surface state at the energy threshold is clearly imaged in k-space. Electron-electron interactions are observed in momentum space as a correlation hole in two-electron photoemission. With the high transmission and the time resolution of this instrument, possible new measurements are discussed: Time and polarization resolved ARUPS measurements, probing change of bandstructure due to chemical reaction, growth of films, or phase transitions, e.g., melting or martensitic transformations.

A novel instrument for imaging ESCA is described. It is based on a tandem arrangement of two hemispherical energy analysers used as an imaging energy filter. The main spherical aberration (α2-term) of the analyser is corrected by the antisymmetry of the tandem configuration. The kinetic energy range useable for imaging extends up to 1.6 keV; this is compatible with Mg and Al Kα laboratory x-ray sources. First experiments on the chemical surface composition of a Cu0.98Bi0.02 polycrystal, a GaAs/AlGaAs heterostructure and Ag crystallites on Si(111) have been performed using synchrotron radiation. The results reveal an energy resolution of 190 meV and a lateral resolution (edge resolution) of 120 nm. Besides elimination of the analyser’s spherical aberration, the tandem arrangement largely retains the time structure of the electron signal, unlike a single hemispherical analyser.
