The study of the electronic structure of anionic clusters using photoelectron spectroscopy (PES) has provided profound insights into the quantum mechanical nature of these complex systems. By ...

For the first time, researchers have been able to measure the quantum state of electrons ejected from atoms that have absorbed high-energy light pulses. This is thanks to a new measurement technique ...

Faster, more efficient, and more versatile—these are the expectations for the technology that will produce our energy and handle information in the future. But how can these expectations be met? A ...

Physicists have used ultrashort laser pulses to probe the dynamics of photoelectron emission in tungsten crystals. Physicists at Ludwig-Maximilian University in Munich (LMU) and the Max Planck ...

An X-ray photoelectron spectrometer is an impressive bit of kit. The relatively low energy of the detected photoelectrons dictates that the experiments are performed in ultra-high vacuum. The ...

New research shows that X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) can give misleading analysis results due to an erroneous assumption during calibration. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) is often ...
