Abstract

Using time-resolved two-photon photoemission we have measured the linewidths and lifetimes of the unoccupied Shockley surface state and first image-potential state on Pd(111). Calculated values are in good agreement with the experimental results.

Highlights

  • Lifetimes and linewidths of surface states have been of increasing interest in recent years due to technological advances in experiment and progress in theoretical models

  • The focus on surface states stems from the surface sensitivity of photoelectron spectroscopy,[1] but similar results are obtained for hot electrons in bulk bands.[2]

  • In order to extend these studies to the Shockleytype surface states found for s p band gaps, we studied the Pd111͒ surface
