Space charge effect and mirror charge effect in photoemission spectroscopy

Abstract: We report the observation and systematic investigation of the space charge effect and mirror charge effect in photoemission spectroscopy. When pulsed light is incident on a sample, the photoemitted electrons experience energy redistribution after escaping from the surface because of the Coulomb interaction between them (space charge effect) and between photoemitted electrons and the distribution of mirror charges in the sample (mirror charge effect). These combined Coulomb interaction effects give rise to an e… Show more

“…The photon flux is indeed so high that measurements with reduced flux are sometimes advisable, when the high intensity leads to detector saturation and energy resolution broadening due to space charge effects. 24 This makes it attractive to further improve the energy resolution, which may be achieved by (a) further improved analyser resolution through the use of even smaller slits, (b) further improved reduction of electronic noise on the sample, and (c) further improvement of the beam energy resolution through operation at higher c-values (thus stronger demagnification of the source) or installation of a grating with higher line density.…”

“…The alignment is sufficiently precise that the gap size along this cut can be no more than 0.7 meV. In all measurements, the probe fluence is 3 nJ/cm 2 (photoemitting 10 6 electrons/cm 2 /pulse); significantly higher probe fluences do not reproduce the same results because the mirror charge effect [18,19] becomes significant, and is modified upon pumping. Because small instabilities in the laser power are linked to the space charge and mirror charge effects, the electron energies also drift over time.…”

“…This sets an upper limit for what photon density on the sample can be used for a certain spectral resolution. These effects are important already at present third generation facilities as shown experimentally by Zhou et al [15]. These effects have also been accurately modeled by Hellmann et al [16] In order to increase the information rate, for high resolution measurements, it is therefore an advantage to use a photon source which operates at a high repetition rate, such as a storage ring facility.…”
