Abstract
Using synchrotron radiation from the VUV ring at NSLS and vacuum ultraviolet radiation from a HeI resonance lamp, we have recorded high resolution photoemission spectra of K and Cs overlayers on Ru(001). It is found that for “thin” multilayer coverages (∼ 3 ML) the K3p and Cs5p core levels exhibit three sets of core levels which can be assigned to interface, “bulkrd and surface emission in increasing binding energy. The results are discussed in terms of the nature of electronic interaction and a thermodynamic model. The K3p core level spin-orbit splitting is also resolved in these measurements for K in the condensed phase, for the first time with photoemission spectroscopy.
