Abstract
Coincidence measurements have been extensively performed in atomic and molecular physics since early 1970s. To apply this methodology to solids and surfaces has been a major target since early days, but the long average time needed to complete a coincidence experiment has hampered its attainment. In particular the coincidence technique has not been yet applied in an angle resolved way such for studying the momentum correlation in the ejection of electron pairs from solid surfaces. The experimental chamber at the ALOISA beamline at Elettra. by means of a set of seven homemade electron analyzers, is the first apparatus able to perform Angle Resolved - Auger Photoelectron Coincidence Spectroscopy (AR-APECS) from solid surfaces. In the typical setup ten different pairs of coincident electrons can be measured simultaneously, so reducing the acquisition time by one order of magnitude.Pubblicazioni consigliate
