An accurate description of spatial variations in the energy levels of patterned semiconductor substrates on the micron and sub-micron scale as a function of local doping is an important technological challenge for the microelectronics industry. Spatially resolved surface analysis by photoelectron spectromicroscopy can provide an invaluable contribution thanks to the relatively non-destructive, quantitative analysis. We present results on highly doped n and p type patterns on, respectively, p and n type silicon substrates. Using synchrotron radiation and spherical aberration-corrected energy filtering, we have obtained a spectroscopic image series at the Si 2p core level and across the valence band. Local band alignments are extracted, accounting for doping, band bending and surface photovoltage.

We have re-examined the valence-band (VB) and core-level electronic structure of NiO by means of hard and soft x-ray photoemission spectroscopy (PES). The spectral weight of the lowest energy state found to be enhanced in the bulk sensitive Ni 2p cor
e-level PES. A configuration-interaction model including the bound state screening has shown significant agreement with the core-level spectra, and the off and on-resonance VB spectra. These results identify the lowest energy state in core-level and VB-PES as the Zhang-Rice doublet bound state, consistent with the spin-fermion model and recent ab initio calculation with dynamical mean-field theory (LDA + DMFT).
Valence-band ultraviolet photoemission spectroscopy (UPS) at 173K and 6p core-level X-ray photoemission spectroscopy (XPS) at room temperature were performed on a high quality uranium single crystal. Significant agreement is found with first-principl
es electronic band-structure calculations, using a generalized gradient approximation (GGA). In addition, using Low Energy Electron Diffraction (LEED) for the (001) surface, we find a well-ordered orthorhombic crystallographic structure representative of the bulk material.
Adsorption of organic molecules on well-oriented single crystal coinage metal surfaces fundamentally affects the energy distribution curve of ultra-violet photoelectron spectroscopy spectra. New features not present in the spectrum of the pristine me
tal can be assigned as interface states having some degree of molecule-substrate hybridization. Here it is shown that interface states having molecular orbital character can easily be identified at low binding energy as isolated features above the featureless substrate sp-plateau. On the other hand much care must be taken in assigning adsorbate-induced features when these lie within the d-band spectral region of the substrate. In fact, features often interpreted as characteristic of the molecule-substrate interaction may actually arise from substrate photoelectrons scattered by the adsorbates. This phenomenon is illustrated through a series of examples of noble-metal single-crystal surfaces covered by monolayers of large pi-conjugated organic molecules.
We have investigated the electronic structure of LaFeAsO$_{1-x}$F$_{x}$ (x = 0; 0.1; 0.2) by angle-integrated photoemission spectroscopy and local density approximation (LDA) based band structure calculations. The valence band consists of a low energ
y peak at E = -0.25 eV and a broad structure around E = -5 eV in qualitative agreement with LDA. From the photon energy dependence of these peaks we conclude that the former derives almost exclusively from Fe 3d states. This constitutes experimental evidence for the strong iron character of the relevant states in a broad window around EF and confirms theoretical predictions.
The strain state and composition of a 400 nm thick (In,Ga)N layer grown by metal-organic chemical vapor deposition on a GaN template are investigated by spatially integrated x-ray diffraction and cathodoluminescence (CL) spectroscopy as well as by sp
atially resolved CL and energy dispersive x-ray analysis. The CL investigations confirm a process of strain relaxation accompanied by an increasing indium content toward the surface of the (In,Ga)N layer, which is known as the compositional pulling effect. Moreover, we identify the strained bottom, unstrained top, and gradually relaxed intermediate region of the (In,Ga)N layer. In addition to an increase of the indium content along the growth direction, the strain relaxation leads to an enhancement of the lateral variations of the indium distribution toward the surface.
