Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The energy band structure is fundamental of electronic properties and charge transport of solid materials. We have developed a new experimental apparatus aiming at measuring the energy band structure of unoccupied states of organic semiconductors. The method is an expansion of the low-energy inverse photoelectron spectroscopy which we created in 2012. We designed a new low-energy electron source to generate an electron beam with the kinetic energy as low as 2 eV. Using a vacuum chamber with magnetic and electric shields quipped with this electron source, we have successfully performed an angle-resolved measurement of the image potential states of graphite surface. We also constructed a vacuum chamber for preparing organic semiconductor films with the uniform molecular orientation. Combining this with the angle-resolved low-energy inverse photoelectron spectrometer mentioned above, we are trying to measure energy band structure of unoccupied states of organic semiconductors.
