Relativistic effects in the surface emission of layered intermetallic systems — •Jurgen Braun, Jan Minar, Sven Bornemann und Hubert Ebert — Dep. Chemie und Biochemie, LMU München, Germany

In the framework of the fully relativistic version of the one-step model, the photoemission intensities resulting from layered intermetallic thin films will be presented. The electronic structure as well as the photoemission calculations have been performed for true semi-infinite systems using the upgraded version of the Munich SPR-KKR program package [1]. To guarantee for a quantitative description of the surface-sensitive spectral distribution special attention is payed on the image-potential behavior of the surface barrier, which is included as an additional layer in the photoemission formalism [2]. Here, we show the intensity distributions that result by excitation with ultraviolet radiation from Ag/Au(111), Ag/Au(110) and Au/Ni(111) surfaces. We discuss the variation in binding energy and spin-orbit splitting of the corresponding surface states as a function of the overlayer thickness and compare our results with available experimental data.
