- Experimental and theoretical study of the 3d photoionization and subsequent Auger decay of initially neutral atomic germanium is presented. The features of the high-resolution photoelectron and Auger electron spectra are interpreted with the aid of multiconfiguration calculations. The binding energies and relative cross sections of the 3d ionized fine-structure states of Ge are given. The complete M4,5NN Auger electron spectrum to doubly ionized final states of the Ge ion is interpreted and discussed.

- The resonant-Auger decay in argon following Ar 1s - np excitations was studied under resonant-Raman conditions, i.e., with a total instrumental bandwidth much narrower than the natural linewidth of the absorption features. These state-of-the-art experiments are combined with a radiationless resonant-Raman scattering theory. The main results include identification of the energy position of some high-lying Rydberg states previously masked by insufficient resolution and clear evidence of electronic-state-lifetime interference phenomena.

- Energy-resolved electron-ion coincidence spectra of the deuteromethane molecule were measured following ionization by narrow-band synchrotron radiation. The ion mass spectra were recorded in coincidence with the outer and inner valence photoelectrons and with the normal Auger electrons from the decay of the carbon 1s core hole. Complementary noncoincidence ion mass spectra were measured below and above the C 1s threshold. The fragmentation patterns of the singly and doubly ionized deuteromethane under different ionization conditions are examined. Carbon core ionization is shown to open new photodissociation pathways not available in the valence ionization photon energy regime. With the aid of ab initio quantum chemistry calculations, a two-step model of the dissociation following core ionization is proposed, showing a good agreement with the experimental findings.

Size-dependent transformation of energy structure in free tin clusters studied by photoelectron spectroscopy

- Free nanoscale tin clusters in the average size range of a few tens up to similar to 500 atoms are studied by means of valence and core-level photoelectron spectroscopy. A self-consistent picture arises from comparison of the work functions derived from the 4d core-level spectra, the experimental ionization energies extracted from the 5p valence spectra, and the expectations from the metallic sphere model for the clusters. The present studies demonstrate that the 4d core-level energy changes are a sensitive probe of the metal-to-semiconductor transition in the size range under investigation.

- Xe 1s photoelectron spectra were measured at SPring-8, Japan. The core-hole lifetime broadening was found to be 9.6 eV, yielding a lifetime of similar to 68 as. The amount of radiative versus nonradiative decay was assessed by recording Auger LMM spectra below and above the K edge. Below the K edge, L vacancies are produced only by direct photoionization, while above the K edge some of these vacancies are mainly produced by KL emission following 1s photoionization. Due to the dipole selection rule for x-ray emission, the dominant role of the KL relaxation process is rather directly observed.

- Fine-structure resolved 5p photoemission spectra of Cs in the ground state and after laser excitation into the [Xe]6p P-2(1/2) and 6p(2)P(3/2) states have been studied. The 5p(5)6p final states have been reached by the 5p(6)6s -> 5p(5)6p conjugate shakeup process from ground-state atoms as well as by direct photoemission from laser-excited atoms. The laser-excited spectra can be well described with calculations based on the jK-coupling model. Calculations based on a multiconfiguration Dirac-Fock approach have been performed to investigate the deviations created by intermediate coupling from the pure jK-coupling scheme.

- The valence photoelectron spectrum of Sb-4 clusters and the following fragmentation patterns have been studied using synchrotron radiation and electron-ion coincidence technique. An experimental photoelectron spectrum of the 5t(2) ionization of Sb-4 is presented. Theoretical molecular calculations, together with the existing data on the noble gas xenon, were used to describe the experimental results. The bonding properties of the molecular orbitals involved are used to qualitatively describe the dissociation process.

Photoelectron satellite structure from the 3d and 4d inner-shell ionization of rubidium and cesium: Role of atomic relaxation

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- The photoelectron satellite structure of rubidium and cesium has been investigated following the photoionization of an nd (n= 3,4) inner-shell electron. The intensity ratios of the nd(-1) ms monopole and nd(-1) m'p conjugated satellite lines have been measured at MAX-lab by using high-resolution electron spectroscopy. For rubidium, moreover, the energy dependence of the 3d(j)6s/3d(j)5s and 3d(j)5p/3d(j)5s intensity ratios with j=3/2 and 5/2 is measured and compared with multiconfiguration Dirac-Fock calculations. A good or at least reasonable agreement is found for both the monopole and conjugated shake-up probabilities if the relaxation of the bound-state electron density is taken into account in the computation of the photoionization cross sections. It is shown that, for the inner-shell ionization of medium and heavy atoms, the orbital relaxation accounts for a significant part of the satellite structure in the photoelectron spectra.

Dissociation of As-4 clusters following valence photoionization and 3d core excitation

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- The VUV-induced photofragmentation of As-4 clusters was studied using photoelectron-photoion-coincidence (PEPICO) spectroscopy. The fragmentation pathways subsequent to outer and inner valence photoionization and resonant photoexcitation were studied by examining the cationic production as a function of electron energy. In addition, regular photoelectron spectroscopy and partial ion yield absorption spectroscopy were employed. In order to enhance the weak signal from the inner valence states, resonant core 3d excitation was used in the PEPICO experiment. The fragmentation pathways were inspected with the aid of ab initio and thermochemical calculations. The many-electron effects were found to play a major role in the observed inner valence structure and resulting photofragmentation.
