Circular dichroism in the photoelectron angular distribution of achiral molecules

Christian S. Kern, Xiaosheng Yang, Giovanni Zamborlini +9

Circular dichroism in the angular distribution (CDAD) is the effect that the angular intensity distribution of photoemitted electrons depends on the handedness of the incident circ…

Tomographic identification of all molecular orbitals in a wide binding energy range

Anja Haags, Dominik Brandstetter, Xiaosheng Yang +11

In the past decade, photoemission orbital tomography (POT) has evolved into a powerful tool to investigate the electronic structure of organic molecules adsorbed on surfaces. Here…

How cold is the junction of a millikelvin scanning tunnelling microscope?

Taner Esat, Xiaosheng Yang, Farhad Mustafayev +3

We employ a scanning tunnelling microscope (STM) cooled to millikelvin temperatures by an adiabatic demagnetization refrigerator (ADR) to perform scanning tunnelling spectroscopy (…

Benchmarking theoretical electronic structure methods with photoemission orbital tomography

Anja Haags, Xiaosheng Yang, Larissa Egger +10

In the past decade, photoemission orbital tomography (POT) has evolved into a powerful tool to investigate the electronic structure of organic molecules adsorbed on (metallic) surf…

Momentum-space imaging of σ-orbitals for chemical analysis

Anja Haags, Xiaosheng Yang, Larissa Egger +11

Tracing the modifications of molecules in surface chemical reactions benefits from the possibility to image their orbitals. While delocalized frontier orbitals with π-character are…

A millikelvin scanning tunneling microscope in ultra-high vacuum with adiabatic demagnetization refrigeration

Taner Esat, Peter Borgens, Xiaosheng Yang +5

We present the design and performance of an ultra-high vacuum (UHV) scanning tunneling microscope (STM) that uses adiabatic demagnetization of electron magnetic moments for control…

Tracing orbital images on ultrafast time scales

Robert Wallauer, Miriam Raths, Klaus Stallberg +10

Frontier orbitals, i.e., the highest occupied and lowest unoccupied orbitals of a molecule, generally determine molecular properties, such as chemical bonding and reactivities. Con…

kMap.py: A Python program for simulation and data analysis in photoemission tomography

Dominik Brandstetter, Xiaosheng Yang, Daniel Lüftner +2

For organic molecules adsorbed as well-oriented ultra-thin films on metallic surfaces, angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy has evolved into a technique called photoemission t…
