Influence of temperature and of physisorbed Xe/Kr on the spin resolved photoemission from Pt(111)

Eyers A, Schönhense G, Friess U, Schäfers F, Heinzmann U. Influence of temperature and of physisorbed Xe/Kr on the spin resolved photoemission from Pt(111). Surface Science. 1985;162(1-3):96-102.Spin polarized photoemission from Pt(111) has been studied under normal incidence and normal emission as function of the temperature between 30 and 550 K using circularly polarized synchrotron radiation of BESSY. The photoelectron intensities and the electron spin polarizations are reduced with increasing temperature and also by increasing coverage of physisorbed rare gas atoms
