Our group is engaged in experimental studies of the electronic properties of surfaces and interfaces. The research focuses primarily on three areas: The influence that quantum size effects in ultrathin metal films have on their interaction with adsorbed atoms and molecules; the growth and morphology of metal overlayers on ferroelectric oxides; and the electronic properties of solids and their surfaces as probed by Auger-photoelectron coincidence spectroscopy. Our research employs a number of electron based spectroscopies, including angle resolved inverse and direct photoemission, both in-house and at synchrotron radiation facilities, as well as scanning tunneling microscopy and spectroscopy.
