Abstract
AbstractThe photoelectric effect was discovered and explained in terms of quantum physics about a hundred years ago. Today, photoemission spectroscopy using vacuum ultraviolet radiation and x‐rays is an important tool for studying the electronic properties and atomic structure of solids. This paper reviews the development of an understanding of the photoemission process and the basic applications of photoemission spectroscopy in solids, including band structure determination, studies of quasiparticle properties, and core level spectroscopy.
