Complete k-Space Visualization Of X-Ray Photoelectron Diffraction

Abstract

AbstractA highly detailed x-ray photoelectron diffraction data set has been acquired for crystalline Cu(001). The data set for bulk Cu 3p emission encompasses a large k-space volume (k=3–10 Å-1) with sufficient energy and angular sampling to monitor the continuous variation of diffraction intensities. The evolution of back-scattered intensity oscillations is visualized by energy and angular slices of this ‘volume’ data set. Large diffractyyion data sets such as this will provide rigorous experimental tests of real-space reconstruction algorithms and multiple-scattering simulations.
