SISSY I

SISSY I@EMIL

The EMIL beamline has two branches – soft (80 eV – 1800 eV) and hard (1800 eV – 10 keV) x-rays – that converge at the SISSY I endstation. The endstation features an angle-resolved photoelectron analyzer for PES/HAXPES and fluorescence detectors for XAS. The endstation is attached to an extensive UHV “backbone” containing off-synchrotron analysis chambers and large-scale deposition tools; interchange of samples between the endstation and all tools allows novel multipart experiments to be performed.

Anwendungsbeispiele:
  • In-system deposition (via sputtering, evaporation, other methods) followed by automatic UHV transfer to characterization systems
  • Analysis of Rh segregation in an oxidized Ga layer
  • Monitoring beam damage and influence of voltage and light on a in situ operated perovskite solar cell
  • Change of a SiOx layer due to extensive annealing up to 900°C for 30 min
  • Note that x-ray standing wave experiments are currently not specifically supported
