Download our poster (pdf-file) with general information about our group. Department of Experimental Physics School of Physics and Engineering Physics Chalmers University of Technology and Göteborg University Ongoing Research Summary An angle resolved photoelectron spectrometer at the MAX- laboratory in Lund is used to study the photon energy dependence of the emission intensity of metal quantum well states and resonances. High resolution angle resolved photoelectron spectroscopy is used to study energy shifts and line widths for electrons photoemitted out of overlayer quantum well states having energies near the Fermi level. (Kihlgren, Lindgren, Walldén, Algdal, Breitholz) Vibrational spectroscopy. Vibrational spectroscopy is used to study Cu(lll) covered by different monolayer amounts of alkali metal or precovered by alkali metal and then exposed to water vapour or CO. (Lindgren, Walldén) FTIR. A dedicated infrared spectrometer is used to study molecules on metal surfaces. The studies are focused on different kinds of fundamental molecule - molecule and molecule-metal interactions. (Gustafsson) Magnetism The properties of two-dimensional magnetic nanometer structures, magnetic clusters and magnetic liquids are studied by magnetization measurements and magnetic force microscopy. (Hanson) Scanning probe microscopy A UHV variable temparature STM is used to study structure and electronic properties of metals and overlayers. Interface Modelling The Interface Modelling Group is working with theoretical investigations of overlayer structures, homogeneous overlayers and islands, and bulk grain boundaries. First principles methods and model calculations are at hand. (Hellsing, Carlsson) |
