ARPES One-Square

1^2 ARPES ultra high resolution photoemission station

ARPES One-Square is dedicated to high-resolution angle-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy. It is equipped with a very high-resolution electron energy analyzer and attached to a beamline providing photons in the energy range from 10 – 250 eV with high resolution and full control over the polarization. A precise 6-axes cryomanipulator combined with an electron analyzer Scienta R8000, operated in parallel angular detection mode, allows for accurate band structure mapping. The versatility of the system is extended by exerting a very broad spectrum of in-situ sample treatment techniques.

The 12 angle-resolved photoemission station is the more versatile sibling of the low-temperature 13 end-station. While it receives light from the same beamline and is equipped with a very high resolution electron energy analyzer, it sheds the ability to reach the lowest temperatures in favor of a much more flexible 6 axes manipulator.

The versatility of the system is furthered by utilization of Omicron/Flag-style sample holders as sample carrier, which make it compatible with varous scientific instruments at HZB or at home institutes of BESSY users. Respectively, compatibility with standard vacuum suitcases (e.g. Ferrovac) is ensured.

Key features of the endstation:

  • High-resolution angle-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy (ARPES) allowing for accurate and detailed full photoemission mapping of the band structure of samples
  • Precise computer-controlled full 6-axes cryomanipulator with temperature down to 15K
  • Low energy electron diffraction (LEED)
  • Utilization of Omicron/Flag-style sample carriers as a standard
  • Preparative sample heating up to 2300K
  • Sample cleaving by top-post at low or elevated temperature
  • Quadrupole mass spectrometer
  • Gateable ports for user devices or material evaporators
  • Thin film in-situ deposition on hot or cold sample
  • Source of alkali materilas for electron doping is always available by default
  • Load-lock for rapid loading of the samples from atmosphere
