Abstract
We present a simple, inexpensive, and highly effective method for monochromatizing the vacuum ultraviolet light emitted from an Ar gas discharge for use, e.g., in photoemission experiments. By using a slightly heated window of LiF acting as low-pass filter, the emission spectrum of the Ar gas discharge is reduced to the Ar line at 11.62eV (106.7nm). The performance of the low-pass filter is demonstrated by photoemission measurements on Cu(111). Furthermore, we compare our light source with an unmonochromatized He gas discharge, which represents the most widely used laboratory photon source in photoemission.
