Development of a Megahertz high-harmonic light source for time-of-flight photoemission spectroscopy — •Cheng-Tien Chiang1,2, Michael Huth1, Alexander Blättermann2, Jürgen Kirschner1,2, and Wolf Widdra2,1 — 1Max-Planck-Institut für Mikrostrukturphysik, Weinberg 2, D-06120, Halle(Saale), Germany — 2Institute of Physics, Martin-Luther-Universität Halle-Wittenberg, Von-Danckelmann-Platz 3, D-06120, Halle(Saale), Germany
We developed a tunable laboratory light source for time-of-flight photoemission spectroscopy using high-order harmonic generation at 4 MHz. The harmonics are driven by a commercial Ti-sapphire laser oscillator and generated in a tight-focusing geometry. Photons with energies beyond 20 eV are produced from an argon gas jet, and the intensity of harmonics can be significantly increased by using a xenon jet. With this light source, we demonstrate photoemission experiments at 4 MHz repetition rate on the well-known Cu(111) surface with a characteristic electronic structure [1].
