       Additional Experimental Facilities


In addition to the more specialized techniques such as inverse photoemission, APECS, and scanning probe microscopy, our lab also has a wide array of more conventional surface analytical techniques including Auger electron spectroscopy (AES), low energy electron diffraction (LEED), and temperature programmed desorption (TPD).

Other, more extensive in-house capabilities are also available through the Laboratory for Surface Modification. These include a 2-MeV tandetron accelerator for Rutherford backscattering spectrometry, a 250 keV ion accelerator for medium energy ion scattering (MEIS), a Thermo K-Alpha for x-ray photoemission spectroscopy (XPS), low energy ion scattering (LEIS), and Auger electron spectroscopy (AES).

While our APECS activities are located at the National Synchrotron Light Source (NSLS) of Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL), where we are PRT members of the U16 beamline, we also perform soft x-ray absorption spectroscopy (SXAS) and magnetic circular dichroism (XMCD) measurements on U4B, and are users of the Brookhaven Center for Functional Nanomaterials (CFN). Other off-campus research activities include performing high resolution photoemission spectroscopy measurements at the Advanced Light Source (ALS).
