Chemically sulfur passivation of GaAs(100) by thioacetamide ( CH 3 CSNH 2) has been studied using synchrotron radiation photoemission spectroscopy (SRPES), Auger electron spectroscopy (AES) and low energy electron diffraction (LEED). The measurement of SRPES and AES showed that the top layer of native oxides over GaAs(100) was removed and the sulfides of Ga and As were formed after the passivation process. The thermal stability and surface structure have also been studied by annealing the passivated samples at different temperatures. We found that the surface sulfides could be removed gradually; as a result, a clean, ordered and thus Fermi level unpinning surface was finally achieved. The surface restructures with GaAs(100)–S(2×1) and 4×1 LEED patterns were observed on annealing above 260°C and at 550°C respectively.

Background: The thermal stability of iron oxide nanowires, which were obtained with a hard template method and are promising elements of Li-ion based batteries, has been investigated by means of thermogravimetry, infrared and photoemission spectroscopy measurements. Results: The chemical state of the nanowires is typical of the Fe2O3 phase and the stoichiometry changes towards a Fe3O4 phase by annealing above 440 K. The shape and morphology of the nanowires is not modified by moderate thermal treatment, as imaged by scanning electron microscopy. Conclusion: This complementary spectroscopy–microscopy study allows to assess the temperature limits of these Fe2O3 nanowires during operation, malfunctioning or abuse in advanced Li-ion based batteries.

The development of highly reflective multilayer mirrors for use in the wavelength region around 6 nm is desired for X-ray photoemission spectroscopy for inner-shell excitation using a Schwarzschild objective. For this application, reflectivity is the most critical parameter determining the performance of multilayer mirrors, because the reflectivity of multilayers in the 6 nm region is generally very low. We have designed CoCr/C multilayer mirrors with a comparatively high reflectivity at around normal incidence and have fabricated them by magnetron sputtering. The measured peak reflectivity is about 16% at a wavelength of around 6 nm and an incident angle of 88°. The reflectivity remains almost constant for 4 h under 300°C in an Ar atmosphere.
