Abstract
For the study of future nm devices, electronic and chemical states must be observed with nm resolution, and a photoelectron microscope is strongly desired to be developed. A compact system for in-house analysis can be realized with a laser-plasma x-ray source. Experimental results confirm that an x-ray photoelectron microscope with a laser-plasma can become a powerful tool with potential spectrum acquisition time comparable to that with a synchrotron source. Reported are high energy resolution photoelectron spectra for Si revealing the existence of surface states, and 2-D mapping with resolution of 60 micrometers demonstrating that simultaneous detection of multi-elements by the time-of-flight energy analysis is powerful in obtaining a reliable mapping. High electron detection efficiency of the system with a pulse source is discussed to be essentially important for nm resolution.
