Spectroscopy of the low-lying states of the group III–V diatomics, AlP, GaP, InP, and GaAs via anion photodetachment spectroscopy
نویسندگان
چکیده
The low-lying electronic states of AlP, GaP, InP, and GaAs have been probed using anion photoelectron spectroscopy and zero electronic kinetic energy spectroscopy. We observe transitions from the anion S and low-lying P states to the triplet (S and P states! and singlet (P , S, and D states! manifolds of the neutral species. The spectra of the triplet manifolds are particularly complex, with overlapping spin–orbit and vibrational progressions. Spin–orbit splittings, term energies, and vibrational frequencies are reported and compared to previous electronic structure calculations on the anions and neutrals, as well as to those parameters determined previously for the isovalent homonuclear diatomics Si2 , Ge2 , and Sn2 . © 2002 American Institute of Physics. @DOI: 10.1063/1.1514050#

Construction and testing of a hydrogen cracking cell
A UHV atomic hydrogen-cracking cell has been constructed to produce atomic hydrogen in order to perform in-situ cleaning of semiconductor samples. The cell was calibrated and tested with the objective of cleaning the III-V semiconductor samples such as GaAs. Mass spectroscopy studies during the atomic hydrogen cleaning of the GaAs samples revealed the chemical process of the hydrogen cleaning. ...
متن کاملCorrelation of Ti 3 + states with photocatalytic enhancement in TiO 2 - passivated p - GaAs
Recently, we reported enhanced H 2 evolution on TiO 2-passivated GaAs. Based on density functional theory (DFT) calculations, this enhancement was attributed to Ti 3+ states, which bind reactant species and increase charge transfer across the semiconductor–liquid interface. Here, we provide a quantitative correlation between Ti 3+ density, as measured by X-ray photoemission spectroscopy (XPS) a...
متن کاملCharacterization of cyclic and linear C3H- and C3H via anion photoelectron spectroscopy.
Anion photoelectron spectroscopy of C3H- and C3D- is performed using both field-free time-of-flight and slow electron velocity-map imaging. We observe and assign transitions originating from linear/bent (l-C3H) and cyclic (c-C3H) anionic isomers to the corresponding neutral ground states and low-lying excited states. Transitions within the cyclic and linear manifolds are distinguished by their ...
متن کاملNi(O2) complex by anion photoelectron spectroscopy
We report the first anion photoelectron spectroscopic study of nickel monoxide ~NiO!, nickel dioxide ~ONiO!, and nickel-O2 complex, Ni~O2!. The adiabatic electron affinity ~EA! of NiO is measured to be 1.46 ~2! eV. Five low-lying electronic excited states (A P , a D , B F , b S, c P) are observed for NiO at 0.43 ~4!, 0.94 ~4!, 1.24 ~3!, 1.80 ~10!, and 2.38 ~10! eV above the ground state, respec...

In this paper, we investigate variation of the wavelength, intensity and polarization of the self-assembled InAs/GaAs quantum dots emission by microphotoluminescence spectroscopy at the liquid helium temperature. The microcavity wafer sample is grown by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) and chemically etched into the micropillar structure (with elliptical cross section - long and short axis 2µm×1.5µ...
