Description
Summary:An experimental setup for time- and angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy using a femtosecond 1 kHz high harmonic light source and a two-dimensional electron analyzer for parallel energy and momentum detection is presented. A selection of the 27th harmonic ( 41.85 eV ) from the harmonic spectrum of the light source is achieved with a multilayer Mo ∕ Si double mirror monochromator. The extinction efficiency of the monochromator in selecting this harmonic is shown to be better than 7:1, while the transmitted bandwidth of the selected harmonic is capable of supporting temporal pulse widths as short as 3 fs . The recorded E ( k ) photoelectron spectrum from a Cu(111) surface demonstrates an angular resolution of better than 0.6° ( = 0.03 Å − 1 at E kin , e = 36 eV ). Used in a pump-probe configuration, the described experimental setup represents a powerful experimental tool for studying the femtosecond dynamics of ultrafast surface processes in real time.
