Preface

The Max Planck Institute of Microstructure Physics focuses primarily on solid state phenom-ena determined by small dimensions, surfaces and interfaces.

Our Institute was founded in 1992 as the Max Planck Society’s first institute in Ger-many’s new federal states. The Institute has three departments:

• Experimental Department I (Director: Prof. Dr. J. Kirschner)

• Experimental Department II (former Director: Prof. Dr. U. Gösele, Interim Director:Prof. Dr. P. Fratzl)

• Theory Department (Director: Prof. Dr. E. K. U. Gross)

and

• International Max Planck Research School (Spokesperson: Prof. Dr. E. K. U. Gross)

• Max Planck Fellow Group (Head: Prof. Dr. I. Mertig,Martin Luther University Halle-Wittenberg)

• Max Planck Fellow Group (Head: Prof. Dr. W. Widdra,Martin Luther University Halle-Wittenberg)

Through our research we want to reveal relations between the magnetic, electronic andoptical properties of solids and their microstructure. We explore thin films, surfaces, andnanocrystalline materials. Our findings provide information for creating new and improvedfunctional or structural materials. The individual departments’ fields of research are outlinedon the following three pages.

Since April 2005, the Institute hosts the International Max Planck Research School forScience and Technology of Nanostructures (Nano-IMPRS). This is a joint initiative fundedby the Max Planck Society and the federal state of Saxony-Anhalt. Our partners are Mar-tin Luther University Halle-Wittenberg and Fraunhofer Institute for Mechanics of MaterialsHalle.

In October 2013, the MPI staff comprised 102 positions, including scientific, techni-cal, and administrative personnel. These positions were filled by 42 scientists (20 of thosenon-tenured) and 61 non-scientists (9 of those non-tenured). Additionally, 5 scientists witha temporary contract were financed by the Max Planck Society. During the period underreview, third-party funds financed 40 coworkers including 17 graduates studying for a doc-torate. Finally, 70 graduate students and postdocs were financed by the Max Planck Society.Of all those coworkers listed above, 104 came from abroad.

Experimental Department I Preface

Experimental Department I

We do basic research on magnetic properties of materials at reduced dimensionality. Thisincludes magnetic surfaces, thin films, wires, and dots with linear scales of 1 to 1,000 atoms.We are particularly interested in the correlation between structural properties and growthmodes of these structures on the one hand, and their magnetic and electronic propertieson the other hand.

Thin films are grown by molecular beam epitaxy and/or laser ablation. Magnetic wiresand dots are made by using specially structured substrates for molecular beam epitaxy. Sur-face structures are analyzed by surface X-ray diffraction, scanning tunneling microscopy,and low energy electron diffraction. Magnetic properties of surfaces, interfaces, and mag-netic nanostructures are analyzed by spin-polarized low energy electron scattering, spin-polarized scanning tunneling microscopy and by photoemission with femtosecond lasers.The magneto-optic Kerr effect serves as a transfer standard between different experiments.Our present interests also include oxides, either as ferromagnets in their own right or as insu-lating films in spin-polarized tunneling devices for magnetoelectronics applications. We arecurrently exploring experimental ways to reveal electron correlation and positron-electroncorrelation effects by means of coincidence spectroscopy.

Our long-standing (since 2003) enjoyable and fruitful cooperation with the LaboratoireLouis Néel (Grenoble, France) within the framework of the Laboratoire Européen Associé(LEA) will be continued on a less intense level. The reason lies in the expiration of theformer generous funding by CNRS and the Max Planck Society. Since April 2010 we havea new collaboration with the India Fellow group of Prof. Anil Kumar at the Indian Instituteof Science, Bangalore, India. The field of common interest is surface magnetism of metalsand oxides probed by elastic spin-polarized electron scattering.

Preface Experimental Department II

Experimental Department II

Design, fabrication and characterization of nanoscale materials and structures are at thecenter of interest of the Experimental Department II. This general philosophy was estab-lished by Prof. Ulrich Gösele in 1993 and essentially maintained after he passed awayunexpectedly at the end of 2009. The present research capabilities include methods to fab-ricate nanowires and nanotubes, macroporous silicon as well as functional oxides. Molec-ular beam epitaxy, laser deposition and cleanroom facilities are available. Advanced highresolution and analytical electron optical techniques are indispensable research tools, com-plemented by the appropriate simulation techniques. We are renting cleanroom facilitiesin a nearby Center for Nanostructured Materials, which also houses a focused ion beammachine, a high resolution SEM and a 100 keV electron beam lithography facility. Our ma-terials research addresses a variety of semiconductors, ferroelectrics, multiferroics, as wellas other materials, such as composites.

Recent results, which are presented in this annual report, include experimental workon nanowires of silicon and compound semiconductors. In the area of functional oxidenanomaterials, physical processes in ferroelectric and multiferroic nanocomposites and het-erostructures have been characterized in detail. In addition, the electron microscopy poten-tial of the department (TITAN 80-300) was used to collaborate with the Max Planck Instituteof Colloids and Interfaces Potsdam studying nanostructure and function of biomaterials.

Two research teams are currently active within the BMBF-funded research project “SiLi-nano”. This joint activity of the Martin Luther University, the Fraunhofer Institute for Me-chanics of Materials, and of the MPI is to accelerate the development of photovoltaics andsilicon photonics.

The department is also strongly involved in collaborative research activities in a Networkof Excellence “Nanostructured Materials” of the Martin Luther University, financed by theState of Saxony-Anhalt, as well as in the Collaborative Research Centre (SFB 762) “Function-ality of Oxide Interfaces”, funded by the German Research Foundation. SFB 762 has beenapproved by the DFG for a second period ranging until 12/2015. The European project“Interfacing Oxides” (IFOX) is focused on creating novel oxide-based nanoelectronics. Weare collaborating in this field with 15 European partners until 2014.

The junior groups “Functional 3D Nanostructures by ALD” (M. Knez) and “NanoscaleFerroelectric and Multiferroic Heterostructures” (I. Vrejoiu) finished their activities at ourMPI. M. Knez got an appointment as professor at CIC nanoGUNE (San Sebastian, Spain),and I. Vrejoiu moved her group to Stuttgart.

Since 2009, the department has been shrinking in staff numbers and is preparing forsubstantial evolution of the scientific profile with the appointment of a new director in theimmediate future.

Theory Department Preface

Theory Department

The Theory Department started its activities in April 1998. The first director, Prof. Dr.P. Bruno, moved to the European Synchrotron Radiation Facility (ESRF) in Grenoble onDecember 15, 2007. Prof. Dr. E.K.U. Gross was hired as the new director on July 1, 2009.The current research is focused on electronic, optical, magnetic, and transport propertiesof micro- and nanostructured systems, with particular emphasis on studying these systemsalso in the time domain. The main research topics are:

Ab initio description of strongly correlated solids. For Mott-type transition-metaloxides, traditional density functional methods, such as LDA and GGA, fail completely:They typically predict a metallic ground state instead of the antiferromagnetic insulat-ing phase found in nature. With a spectrum of advanced electronic-structure methods,such as Reduced-Density-Matrix-Functional Theory (RDMFT), dynamical mean field the-ory (DMFT), and LDA+U, we study the physics of these materials. Several methodologicaldevelopments, including the finite-temperature extension of RDMFT and novel exchange-correlation functionals are pursued with the ultimate goal of a parameter-free descriptionof the complete phase diagram of these materials. Of particular interest in this context isthe study of interfaces between strongly correlated oxides and their multiferroic properties.

Electronic charge and spin transport through nanostructured systems. Here we focuson time-dependent aspects of transport, such as the periodic charging and discharging ofquantum dots found in the Coulomb-blockade regime upon ramping up a bias. Anotherfocus is on tunneling magneto-resistance in ferromagnet/insulator/ferromagnet systems andon spin-dependent transport phenomena in two-dimensional systems such as the Rashbaeffect.

Ab initio theory of superconductivity. We predict material-specific properties, suchas the critical temperature, of conventional phonon-driven superconductors. In search ofhigh-temperature superconductors within this class of materials, we look for systematic con-nections between the chemical bonding and the strength/structure of the superconductingorder parameter. Generalizations of the presently available theoretical framework to in-clude spin-driven and polaronic mechanisms are being developed.

Analysis and control of electronic dynamics with ultrashort laser pulses. We studymulti-photon processes such as high-harmonic generation found in the interaction of stronglaser pulses with matter. Apart from the mere description of these phenomena we alsoexplore the inverse problem, i.e. we calculate the specific pulse shape that achieves apredefined goal, for example the enhancement of a single peak (say the 13th harmonic)in the harmonic spectrum. This is achieved by a combination of time-dependent densityfunctional theory with optimal control theory.

Nanostructures on surfaces. The interactions among adatoms on a surface stronglydepend on the specific electronic structure of the surface. Especially in the presence ofa surface state, long-range interactions arise that lead to a number of new quantum phe-nomena such as self-organization processes due to quantum interferences in the surfacestate.

Nano-IMPRS is a joint PhD program of the Martin Luther University Halle-Wittenberg, theFraunhofer Institute for Mechanics of Materials and our Institute. It combines and shares theexpertise of various strong research groups in different fields of science and technology ofnanostructures. It connects competence in nanostructural synthesis and analytics in orderto facilitate the efficient acquisition of basic knowledge in this field. A unique featureof nanoscale science and technology is the interdisciplinarity of methods and proceduresfor the synthesis and characterization of nanometer-sized systems. The participants of theResearch School conduct scientific research on an international level.

Within the Research School, the synthesis and preparation of nanostructures, the char-acterization of their physical and structural properties, and the theoretical description areclosely linked together. Research inside the IMPRS includes the investigation of nanoma-terials for potential applications, fundamental issues with regard to the physical propertiesof systems with reduced size and dimension and the theoretical analysis of the observedphenomena.

Nano-IMPRS is supported by the Max Planck Society with 2.2 Mio EUR for six years,and by the federal state of Saxony-Anhalt with six additional research positions.

Max Planck Fellow Group - Prof. Mertig Preface

Max Planck Fellow Group - Prof. Mertig

The activities of the Max Planck Fellow Group started in 2007. We do basic researchin the field of solid state theory. We are interested in a material-specific and parameter-free description of nanostructured systems. Our research is based on density functionaltheory formulated in terms of Green’s functions. Green’s functions are very powerful for theconsideration of systems with arbitrary geometry like heterostructures, thin films, surfaces,adatoms on surfaces, or nanocontacts. The numerical effort of our method scales with thenumber of atoms. In this respect we are able to treat nanostructures of realistic size.

Our investigations start from the atomic structure of a system which is either known fromexperiment or can be determined numerically by structural relaxation. The main focus ofour work is the microscopic understanding of the electronic, magnetic, ferroelectric, andtransport properties on the atomic scale.

A substantial part of our research is dedicated to the emerging field of spintronics. Spin-tronics has a large potential for future applications in sensor and information technology inwhich the charge and spin degrees of freedom of the electrons are exploited. A successfulapplication requires achieving control of the materials and processes involved on the atomicscale. To support the experimental developments, to predict new materials, and to opti-mize the effects, first-principles electronic structure calculations based on density functionaltheory are the method of choice.

Our method is applied to gain insight into the microscopic origin of spin-dependenttransport in magnetic heterostructures as well as in metallic and molecular contacts. Thebasic effects of spintronics like giant magnetoresistance (GMR) and tunneling magnetoresis-tance (TMR) have been investigated. Charge and heat to spin current conversion by meansof the spin Hall effect (SHE) and the spin Nernst effect (SNE) as well as magnetoelectriccoupling via multiferroic interfaces are currently focus areas of our research.

Our work is as well related to the Collaborative Research Centre 762: Functionality ofOxide Interfaces. Here we investigate metal-oxide and oxide-oxide interfaces. Their atomicstructure is the key for the resulting electronic and functional properties. We are particu-larly interested in multiferroics. Multiferroic materials simultaneously show ferroelectric andmagnetic order. The observed electric polarization and magnetization and their couplingeffects are usually very small in single-phase multiferroics. A breakthrough in this respectis expected from multiferroic heterostructures. Magnetoelectric coupling via the interfacebetween a ferroelectric and a ferromagnetic layer is expected to be larger because of thereduced dimensionality.

Preface Max Planck Fellow Group - Prof. Widdra

Max Planck Fellow Group - Prof. Widdra

The Max Planck Fellow group in the field of experimental surface science started in July2010. The group focuses on the electronic structure of oxide surfaces and nanostructuresas well as of oxide thin films. Particular effort will be directed onto systems for whichelectronic correlations are important and which are beyond the traditional description in aone-electron picture. The long-term goal within the new activities will be the investigationof such systems by laser-based double photoemission spectroscopy in combination withcomplementary techniques as time-resolved two-photon photoemission (2PPE), scanningtunneling spectroscopy (STS), angle-resolved photoemission (ARPES), and electron energyloss spectroscopy (EELS) to advance the understanding of the peculiar electronic propertiesof correlated systems.

One objective of the group is the development of a new high-repetition-rate pulsedlight source for double photoemission coincidence experiments and time-resolved pho-toelectron spectroscopy. This light source is based on higher-harmonics generation from afemtosecond laser operating at MHz repetition rate. It enables highly efficient time-resolvedphotoelectron spectroscopy with a widely tunable photon energy range. Moreover, it is anideal light source for double photoemission coincidence experiments, which are pursuedin close cooperation with the Experimental Department I on different oxide surfaces.

A second objective of the research is dedicated to spectroscopy and understanding ofthe electronic structure of transition metal oxide surfaces and epitaxial thin films. Herethe studies start at model systems like NiO(100) but extend also to more complex, butstructurally still well-prepared oxide thin film systems. The combination of ARPES, EELS,and 2PPE allows for a broad spectroscopic characterization of occupied as well as of unoc-cupied electronic states and their dynamics at femtosecond time scale. The combinationwith STS provides an alternative spectroscopy which directly links with each other localelectronic and atomic structure. These activities are closely related to the CollaborativeResearch Center 762: Functionality of Oxide Interfaces.

Magnetic anisotropy of ultrathin magneticfilms leads to the observation of “hard” and“easy” magnetization axes. The magnetocrys-

talline anisotropy is related to the crystal struc-ture of a thin film, and it is decisive for themagnetization reversal in external fields or bymeans of spin-polarized currents. A better un-derstanding of the relation between electronicstructure and magnetocrystalline anisotropy iscrucial for the ability of engineering desiredproperties in magnetic structures for improvedtechnological applications. Since the magne-tocrystalline anisotropy energy originates inthe spin-orbit interaction, it can be enhancedby specifically controlling the electronic struc-ture of a thin film near the Fermi level EF.In particular, such electronic modifications cantake place when quantum well states from d-bands are formed in ferromagnetic films [1].For example, oscillatory magnetocrystallineanisotropy as a function of the thickness of aferromagnetic film has been observed in ultra-thin iron (Fe) films [2].

In order to elucidate the origin and the prop-erties of quantum well states in Fe films, pho-toelectron spectroscopy (PES) measurementshave been performed, where photoelectronsare excited by ultraviolet laser light of 6 eVphoton energy. The photoemission intensitymap obtained as a function of thickness of anFe film grown on a Ag(001) surface is shownin Fig. 1. The oscillations of the photoemis-sion intensity with increasing Fe film thicknessconfirm the formation of quantum well statesin the vicinity of the EF. The period of the

photoemission intensity oscillations, which isdetermined by the wavelength of the electronstanding waves, allows to assign the confinedelectronic band to the d-band with a ∆5 spatialsymmetry and majority-spin state character.

The microscopic mechanism responsible forthe oscillatory magnetocrystalline anisotropydue to quantum well states can be under-stood from x-ray magnetic circular dichroism(XMCD) measurements. These allow to de-termine the anisotropy of the orbital magneticmoment as a source of the magnetocrystallineanisotropy [3].

In our case, it is therefore essential to ver-ify how the formation of d-band quantum wellstates influences the orbital magnetic moment.In order to identify even small changes in themagnetocrystalline anisotropy, Fe films weregrown on a stepped Ag(116) surface. Thestepped surface introduces an additional in-

The schematic view of our XMCD experi-ment [4] on Fe/Ag(116) is shown in Fig. 2(a).The out-of-plane dxz and dyz orbitals repre-senting the confined electronic states with ∆5

symmetry are also visualized in Fig. 2(a). Ina first approximation, the dxz and dyz orbitalsdetermine the in-plane orbital magnetic mo-ment components perpendicular to (m⊥

parallel to (m‖orb

) the step edges, respectively.The values of m⊥

were obtainedfrom the XMCD data set for three independentincidence angles. The dependence of theanisotropy of the in-plane orbital moment∆morb (i.e., the difference between m

‖orb

andm⊥

orb) on the Fe thickness is shown in Fig. 2(b).

Two maxima in the anisotropy of the or-bital moment can be distinguished at ∼ 8.5

and ∼ 12.5 monolayers (ML), i.e., at nearly thesame thicknesses of Fe at which maxima ofthe PES intensity are observed. This resultshows that the quantization of the dxz, dyz out-of-plane orbitals modulates the anisotropy ofthe in-plane orbital magnetic moment.

The fact that the maxima of the PES inten-sity coincide with the maxima of the ∆morb

confirms the correlation between the densityof states in the vicinity of the Fermi leveland the magnetocrystalline anisotropy. Thecorresponding changes of the magnetocrys-talline anisotropy energy (MAE) due to quan-tum well states can be estimated according toMAE= −α ξ

4µB∆morb [3], where ξ = −54 meV

is the spin-orbit coupling constant for Fe andα = 0.05 is the prefactor related to differencesbetween microscopic and macroscopic probesof the magnetocrystalline anisotropy energy.The two maxima observed in the thickness de-pendence of ∆morb occurring at around 8.5 and12.5 ML (Fig. 2) correspond to MAE of 15.4and 46.1 µeV/atom, respectively.

In summary, our combined photoelectronspectroscopy and x-ray magnetic circulardichroism studies elucidate the microscopicorigin of the oscillatory magnetocrystallineanisotropy in bcc Fe films [1, 2]. We demon-strate that anisotropy oscillations result fromchanges of the in-plane orbital magnetic mo-ments, which in turn are a direct consequenceof the quantization of the dxz, dyz out-of-planeorbitals.

Film stress in epitaxial SrTiO3 layers

D. Sander and J. Premper

Film growth in the nanometer thicknessrange has reached an impressive level of per-fection. This is the basis for the reliable pro-duction of omnipresent devices in the areas ofelectronics and data storage. This success offilm growth is truly remarkable, as there aremany obstacles which inhibit the functional-ity of the film. One important aspect is filmstress. If it gets too large, the film developsflaws, and ultimately it ruptures, and conse-quently the film functionality is lost. Thus,quantitive film stress measurements play a piv-otal role for an improved understanding of filmgrowth, and they are presented here.

We developed a new experimental setupto measure film stress during film growth byan optical deflection technique [1] with sub-monolayer sensitivity and high accuracy. Thistechnique exploits the stress-induced curvatureof a 0.1 mm thin single crystal substrate uponfilm deposition. It was originally developed forapplications in metal epitaxy at room temper-ature under ultrahigh vacuum conditions [2].However, lately complex oxides, with vastlydifferent preparation conditions, have attractedconsiderable interest. This is spurred by theirintriguing multifunctionality promise [3].

The growth of these materials is performedby pulsed laser deposition (PLD) under highoxygen partial pressure of 10−4 mbar at an el-evated substrate temperature of 900 K. Theseexperimental conditions deviate sharply fromultra high vacuum conditions of metal epi-taxy. Oxidation processes at the sample holderand thermal drift issues at the elevated sub-strate temperature present harsh experimen-tal conditions. We modified successfully thestress measurement setup to ensure reliablestress measurements during PLD of SrTi03 onPd(001).

SrTi03 is a prototype complex oxide withperovskite structure. Figure 1(a) presents ahard sphere model of its atomic structure. The

Figure 2 shows the results of our stress mea-surement during PLD growth of SrTi03 with athickness of five unit cells. The stress curve(red, left scale) indicates an initial positivestress change, before an almost constant neg-ative slope of the stress signal is observedfrom 1 to 5 unit cell film thickness, where thePLD ended. The stress measurements are aug-mented by simultaneous medium energy elec-tron diffraction (MEED) measurements (bluecurve, right scale), which provide a qualitativemeasure for the film roughness. The initial de-position of up to one unit cell leads to a sharpreduction of the intensity, which recovers,showing slight oscillations (blue arrows) with

unit cell periodicity. We conclude that stressand film roughness show a non-monotonouschange during SrTi03 growth, where the thick-ness equivalent of one unit cell (highlighted inorange) shows a deviating behavior from thatof the higher film thickness. The bottom panelof Fig. 2 presents low energy electron diffrac-tion (LEED) images before (left) and and af-ter SrTi03 growth (right). These images revealthe (1×1)-diffraction of the cubic Pd(001) sur-face, and additional diffraction spots indicativeof the c(2×2) film structure, respectively.

The results shown in Fig. 2 indicate thatSrTi03 grows epitaxially on Pd(001), wherea c(2×2) film structure is observed, in agree-ment with the model in Fig. 1(b). This atomicarrangement induces a lattice misfit betweenSrTi03 and Pd(001) of −0.4 %, which is due tothe size mismatch between the respective sur-face unit cells. As a result, SrTi03 grows un-der compressive film stress with a calculatednegative stress change of −2.65 N/m in a fiveunit cell thick film, in quantitative agreementwith the experimental value of −2.7 N/m. Thisidentifies lattice misfit as the dominant sourceof lattice stress in this case, where the filmmaintains its integrity and epitaxial order atleast to a thickness of five unit cells.

The initial stress and MEED response upto one unit cell suggests an interface forma-tion which is more complicated than the modelshown in Fig. 1(b). Further studies are cur-rently under way to elucidate the structuraldetails of the SrTi03-Pd interface formation,where additional interfacial oxygen might playa crucial role [4].

Exploring highly correlated materials via electron pair emission

L. Behnke, C. H. Li, and F. O. Schumann

Electron pairs can be emitted from a surfacevia primary electron impact or photon absorp-tion. We call these processes (e,2e) and doublephotoemission (DPE), respectively. The exis-tence of pair intensity requires a finite electron-electron interaction. This raises the questionwhether it is possible that the actual pair inten-sity provides information about the interactionstrength. This aspect was pursued in a theoret-ical DPE study [1]. The focus was a modelsystem described by the Hubbard Hamilto-nian. Within this picture the electron correla-tion strength is given by the Hubbard param-eter U and the DPE intensity scales approxi-mately with U2. It is expected that a similardependence on U also holds for the (e,2e) pro-cess.

Experimentally it is not possible to tune thecorrelation strength of matter. Therefore, it isnecessary to identify materials which may bedescribed by different values of the parameterU. A successful theory which correctly pre-dicts the properties of many materials is theLocal Density Approximation (LDA). Amongthe materials which are well described by LDAare transition metals. The same theory appliedto transition metal oxides like NiO or CoO pre-dicts metallic character while experimentallyinsulating behavior is observed. This short-coming is a consequence that the treatment ofelectron correlation within LDA is not suffi-ciently accurate for NiO and CoO. The needto describe the electron correlation beyond theLDA scheme for NiO and CoO qualifies thesematerials as “highly correlated”. In this sensewe may regard transition metals as exampleswhere U ≈ 0, while for NiO U is in the rangeof 6 - 8 eV.

Due to the fact that NiO films of high qualitycan be prepared via growth on a Ag(100) sur-face we compared the (e,2e) intensities of thesubstrate to that of the film [2, 3]. The coin-cidence experiments were performed with the

apparatus schematically shown in Fig. 1.

A general problem in pair emission exper-iments is that the detected pair can originatefrom the impact of one primary electron orfrom two primary electrons. In the first caseone speaks of a true coincidence while the sec-ond case is referred to as random coincidence.The measured intensity has both contributions,hence it is important to identify the respectiveintensity levels. In the energy dispersive set-up shown in Fig. 1 a separation is possible bythe following considerations. In the case of atrue coincidence both electrons leave the sam-ple at the same time. They will arrive at the re-spective detectors at the same time within thetime resolution of the coincidence spectrome-ter. In other words the arrival time difference∆t will be centered at zero. For random coin-cidences the arrival time difference will haveno preferred value, because there is no time re-lation between the two primary electrons.

With this in mind we present in Fig. 2the ∆t histogram for 15 ML NiO/Ag(100)and the Ag(100) surface. The data acquisi-tion time and the primary electron flux werekept constant. The primary energy was set toEp = 30 eV. It is obvious that both intensitydistributions display a peak centered at ∆t ≈ 0.

The width of the peaks is in both instancesapproximately 10 ns which reflects the timeresolution of the experiment. The intensitylevel outside the peak region shows the level ofrandom coincidences also present in the peakregion. The height of the peak above the con-stant background level is a measure of the truecoincidences. We find a factor of 8 enhance-ment for NiO compared to Ag.

We have verified by means of a wide an-gle spectrometer that the observation of anenhanced coincidence intensity for NiO com-pared to metals is a genuine effect and notcaused by the finite angular acceptance of theinstrument shown in Fig. 1. Additionally, weinvestigated the primary energy dependence ofthe pair intensity for different metals and theiroxide phases. The result is summarized inFig. 3. We first focus on the intensities for NiOand Ni.

For Ep values in the range 18-28 eV thepair emission for NiO is an order of magni-tude more intense than for Ni. This agreeswith the findings displayed in Fig. 2 wherethe pair emission from NiO and Ag(100) iscompared. We emphasize that post-oxidizingthe Ni metal film does not increase the pairemission significantly. The next question iswhether an increased coincidence rate is alsoobservable for other oxides.

We conclude that transition metal oxidesdisplay an enhanced coincidence count ratecompared to metals. This suggests that pairemission intensity allows the determination ofthe correlation strength.

The fascinating properties of nanoscale ma-terials stem from their unique structural prop-erty, namely the presence of a large fractionof low coordinated atoms and the tendency tosmooth the charge density at atomic steps ofan island. Only a few quantitative studies havebeen published providing evidence for the fi-nite size driven rearrangement in nanoscalesystems [1, 2]. The atomic rearrangement,which is commonly referred to as “mesoscopicmisfit” (MM) which has been theoreticallypredicted a decade ago [3], has also wide im-plications on the physical and chemical prop-erties of nanoscale adsorbate systems. Usingthe surfactant adsorption system Fe/O/Fe(001)as a prototype example our study providesclear evidence of the MM driven modifica-tion of the adsorbate geometry and its puz-zling magnetic properties, such as the oscilla-tory surface magnetic moment versus Fe cov-erage observed earlier [5].

Figure 1 shows an 8.0×3.6 nm2 constant cur-rent STM image of two Fe islands (U = -0.2 V,I = 100 pA) of about 4 nm (left) and 1.5 nm(right) in diameter. Distinct differences ex-ist between the flat O/Fe(001)-p(1×1) structurecharacterized by the regular protrusions andthat at the rim of the large nanoisland. The lat-ter is related to the increased STM contrast andthe lack of atomic resolution. If the island di-ameter becomes smaller than 2-3 nm the islandis characterized by the “rim state” as can beseen for the small island on the right.

We find a height differ-ence of approximately 2 Å between the lowerterrace and the island rims and a height differ-ence of 0.75 Å between the island rim and theisland center. There is also a height differenceof ≈2 Å between the level of the terrace andthe small island indicating a close resemblancebetween the small island and rim structure.

Surface x-ray diffraction (SXRD) exper-iments give quantitative evidence for sub-stantial MM driven modifications of theO/Fe(001)-p(1×1) structure.

We conclude that the “rim state” by STMas a bright contrast (Fig. 1) is primarily re-lated to the adsorption geometry of the oxy-gen and Fe island/rim atoms, since the heightdifference between the terrace and the islandwhich is in the 2 Å range approximately corre-sponds to the SXRD derived height differenceof 2.1 Å between the level of Fet and Or.

The results are supported by ab initio den-sity functional theory calculations. The Fenanoisland is approximated by a 1 nm widestripe along [100] as shown in Fig. 3. Themodel corresponds to the large island shownin Fig. 1 with a terrace like structure withatoms Ot and Fet in the island center and therim structure with atoms Or and Fer. Verti-cal spacings between oxygen and Fe atoms arevery close to experiment. The calculated mag-netic moments (m) allow to interpret the os-cillatory behavior of the surface magnetic mo-ment measured by second harmonic genera-tion experiments [5] upon deposition of Fe. Atfull coverage corresponding to the formationof the O/Fe(001)-p(1×1) terrace, m is large(m = 3.21 µB) for atoms Fet on the terrace,respectively. By contrast, at half layer cover-age, the fraction of island atoms (Fer) is at a

In summary, our study shows the impor-tance of mesoscopic misfit induced modifi-cations for the O/Fe(001) adsorption geome-try affecting the magnetic moments of the Featoms. Our results are of importance for under-standing adsorption systems at the nanoscalein general.

Controlling magnetic anisotropy via the interface exchange coupling

Perpendicular magnetization is required,in particular, for giant magneto-resistance(GMR) and/or tunnelling magneto-resistance(TMR) based devices for magnetic record-ing and magnetic random access memory(MRAM). Magnetization of one of the fer-romagnetic (FM) layers in such devices usu-ally is pinned to the antiferromagnetic (AFM)underlayer, whereas the second one can befreely magnetized in two opposite directions(resulting in different resistivity, depending onwhether the magnetizations of both FM lay-ers are oriented parallel or antiparallel). Thepinning is realized by employing the exchangebias effect, which is due to the coupling be-tween FM and AFM spins at the interfaces.

Our idea is to exploit the FM/AFM cou-pling, not only to pin the magnetization butalso to enhance perpendicular anisotropy ofthe FM layer.

The exchange bias effect in FM/AFM inter-faces has attracted much interest for decades,however, the microscopic mechanism respon-sible for this phenomenon has not yet beenfully understood. The reason lies in the dif-ficulty to detect directly (and locally) the AFMspin configuration. The existing models ex-plain the exchange bias effect for systemswith an uncompensated AFM surface (i.e., allspins are oriented in the same direction) andwith collinear (i.e., parallel or antiparallel)FM/AFM exchange coupling at the interface.However, theoretical calculations for compen-sated interfaces (i.e., neighboring spins of theinterfacial AFM plane are oriented antiparal-lel) show that the AFM and FM spins may becoupled perpendicularly and that they gener-ate an effective uniaxial anisotropy. An in-plane spin reorientation transition, driven by

perpendicular coupling, has been theoreticallypredicted for temperatures close to the order-ing (Neel) temperature (TN) of the AFM layerand has been observed experimentally, for in-stance for Fe/NiO bilayers grown on Ag(001)-stepped surface [1].

Here our goal is to verify whether per-pendicular FM/AFM coupling is possible ina plane perpendicular to the sample plane.Then the axis of the uniaxial coupling-drivenanisotropy should be oriented perpendicularto the sample plane. This could result in aperpendicular easy magnetization axis for FMfilms that otherwise, without such a coupling,would be magnetized in the sample plane. ForFM films with initial perpendicular easy axisthe effect would be an increase of thickness upto which perpendicular magnetization is sus-tained.

X-ray magnetic linear dichroism (XMLD)experiments show that Co spins are oriented inthe film plane if CoO is epitaxially grown onAg(001). The same holds for CoO on Pd(001)because the lattice constant of Pd(001) is sim-ilar to Ag(001). This is due to the compres-sive strain on the film exerted by the substrate.Therefore it would be interesting to examinethe coupling between the AFM-CoO film andthe FM film (e.g., Ni) expecting the magne-tization to be relatively easy reoriented fromin-plane to perpendicular to the sample plane.

For this purpose we have grown a23 monolayer (ML) Ni film on a Pd(001)substrate. This thickness is well above thevalue at which magnetization rotates fromperpendicular towards in-plane at room tem-perature (dSRT ≈17 ML). On top of it, 3 MLof CoO were grown showing (100) crystal-lographic orientation. Magnetic properties

After covering with CoO, easy-axis rectan-gular loops are measured at 5 K. This is ob-served not only for the 23 ML thick Ni film(Fig. 1), but also for much thicker films - up to30 ML. In these cases the signal in remanencecorresponds to the value expected for a perpen-dicularly magnetized Ni film of same thick-ness (which means that the oxidation of theNi surface by the growing CoO is negligible).With increasing temperature, the easy magne-tization axis rotates towards the film plane andhard-axis loops are measured at room temper-ature (Fig. 1). The easy magnetization axisreorients around 270 K, which coincides withTN expected for the thin CoO film. Thus,there is a clear correspondence between the an-tiferromagnetism of CoO and the orientationof the easy magnetization axis of Ni (Fig. 2).This confirms that the enlarged perpendicularanisotropy is due to the coupling between theFM-Ni and AFM-CoO [2].

Exactly the same observation was madefor the reversed structure, i.e., for Ni filmgrown on top of 3 ML of CoO on Pd(001).

Loops evolving from symmetric hard-axisshape above TN to rectangular easy-axis shape(clearly shifted along the field axis) below TN

of CoO were measured.Moreover, we proved by XMLD that the

AFM spins of the CoO film grown onNi/Pd(001) are oriented in the sample plane,whereas the easy magnetization axis of Ni isperpendicular to the sample plane. This clearlyconfirms that the coupling is perpendicular.

From the application point of view, it isimportant to explore the effect at room tem-perature. This can be achieved by replacingCoO with NiO which exhibits TN clearly aboveroom temperature even for thin films.

In summary, we have shown how theFM/AFM spin coupling can be employed notonly to pin the magnetization of one of theelectrodes of GMR/TMR junctions, but also tosupport magnetocrystalline anisotropy to ori-ent the easy magnetization axis perpendicularto the film plane.

Nucleation-induced self-assembly of epitaxial multiferroic

BiFeO3-CoFe2O4 nanocomposites

S. M. Stratulat, X. Lu, A. Morelli, W. Erfurth, D. Hesse, and M. Alexe

Magnetoelectric materials represent a dy-namic research topic, motivated by both po-tential applications and the requirement to un-derstand acting driving mechanisms [1, 2].Large interest has been concentrated on thedesign of ferroelectric/magnetic heterostruc-tures, or nanostructured multiphase multifer-roics, which have significant potential for thedevelopment of multifunctional devices [3].Special focus has been set on the growth andcharacterization of vertical multiferroic het-erostructures, where nanopillars of one mate-rial are embedded in the matrix of the other[4]. This specific type of connectivity betweenthe two phases of the composite material, de-nominated as 1-3 connectivity, holds the ad-vantage of rather low substrate clamping andhigh contact area between the components. Atthe same time, three-dimensional epitaxy facil-itates the study of effects at the interface, suchas charge mediated or spin mediated couplingmechanisms.

Until now, the high degree of randomnessof both position and dimension of the pillars inthe matrix - being a result of the used simpleself-assembly processes - has been, however, adrawback with respect to magnetoelectric cou-pling strength and to potential devices [4]. Wehave therefore developed a method to obtainperfectly ordered epitaxial magnetic CoFe2O4

(CFO) nanopillars embedded in a ferroelectricBiFeO3 (BFO) matrix, with minimal variationof the characteristic sizes of the features, andon large substrate area [5].

The process is based on patterning the nu-cleation points of the CFO pillars through ahard mask. As hard mask we have used, on onehand, anodic aluminum oxide (AAO) mem-branes which became popular as a patterningtechnique [6, 7, 8] due to the obvious advan-tage of being the result of a self-assembly pro-cess themselves. On the other hand we have

used gold masks patterned by e-beam lithogra-phy to tune the symmetry and the pitch sizeof the nano-composite [5]. The outline ofthe nucleation-induced self-assembly processis depicted in Figure 1.

(d) Deposi-tion of the ordered multiferroic composite from amixed target. (e,f) SEM images of CFO nucleationcenters with hexagonal symmetry (e) and final re-sult of the CFO-BFO composite (f).

SrRuO3-buffered SrTiO3 (001) single crys-tals were used as substrates. In the first stage,the hard mask used to induce the nuclei istransferred onto the substrate. The nuclei areobtained by deposition, at relatively high tem-perature, of the pillar material (CFO in thepresent case) through the mask. After re-moval of the hard mask, the self-assembly pro-cess is continued by usual deposition of thesystem BFO-CFO from a mixed target. Thesingle crystal pillars nucleate at the predeter-mined sites, yielding arrays of perfectly or-dered CFO pillars in the ferroelectric BFO ma-trix. To prove the concept and establish theself-assembly parameters, initially gold masksof about 50 nm in thickness patterned by e-

beam lithography were used. In a later stage,AAO membranes fabricated using a previouslydescribed process [6] have been transferred onthe substrate and used as masks.

CFO nuclei were produced by pulsed laserdeposition (PLD) on the substrates with mask.The masks were then removed through wetetching processes and the CFO nuclei arefound in the expected arrangement (Fig. 1(e)).The final composite was obtained by PLD ofBFO-CFO from a mixed target exactly as forthe usual self-assembly process. The result ofthis nucleation-induced self-assembly processis shown in Figures 1(f) and 2. As expected,the pitch of the nuclei plays a significant role.For both square and hexagonal symmetries, thebest results are obtained for the smaller pitch(200 nm). For details, see [5].

Ferroelectric and magnetic properties of thesamples were locally analyzed by piezore-sponse force microscopy (PFM) and magneticforce microscopy (MFM), respectively. Theout-of-plane PFM phase scan for an area of1×1 µm2 is presented in Figure 3(a). Fromthe amplitude scan image (not shown) it canbe seen that the piezoelectric response comessolely from the BFO matrix and is mostly ho-mogenous. Local PFM spectroscopy investi-gations reveal very good ferroelectric proper-

ties (coercive field 130 kV/cm; piezoelectriccoefficient of ∼30 pm/V). Figure 3(b) showsthe MFM phase response that reveals magneticactivity at the site of the pillars.

Fig. 3: Out-of-phase PFM image (a) and MFM im-age (b) of the sample from Figure 2. In the MFMimage, the superposed contours of the pillars weretaken from the AFM amplitude image. For thescale, see Figure 2.

The magnetoelectric coupling was testedvia magneto-capacitance (MC) measurementswhich indeed demonstrated a coupling be-tween the magnetic and ferroelectric order pa-rameters. The MC data resemble a quadraticmagnetoelectric effect at low magnetic fields,two almost linear regions at intermediate fieldsand some faint steps at finite magnetic fields[5]. The magnetoelectric coefficients cal-culated from the two linear regions are 0.6and 0.9 µC/cm·Oe, respectively. This novelnucleation-induced large-area self-assemblyprocess could be relevant for most systemsbased on phase separation, since nucleationand growth are a rather general feature of thesesystems.

Investigation of recombination-active grain boundaries by high resolution

Recombination-active grain boundaries(GBs) in multicrystalline (mc) solar cells areone of the main origins of locally decreasedminority carrier lifetimes. Thus an increasedlocal diffusion current density can be expectedthere. In order to estimate the influence ofsuch crystal defects on the device perfor-mance, a measurement of the recombinationactivity at grain boundaries is necessary.

Dark lock-in thermography (DLIT) providesa direct measurement of the locally dissipatedpower and thus the local current density [1].To overcome the limited spatial resolutioncaused by thermal blurring, a 2-dimensionalFourier-based algorithm [1] has to be appliedto the in-phase and out-of-phase DLIT images(Fig. 1(a) and (b)). The deconvoluted powerdensity distribution has an enhanced spatial

resolution of about 160 µm and thus enablesa direct correlation of the current density tothe GBs (Fig. 1(c)). It is obvious that allrecombination-active grain boundaries, whichshow an increased current density, are alsocharacterized by a decreased internal quantumefficiency measured by light beam inducedcurrent (LBIC).

The recombination rate of the charge carri-ers at the GB can be described by a surfacerecombination velocity vs. The correlating dif-fusion current per length Jline

01 is described bya model of Lax [2] and is adopted to evalu-ate vs. The corresponding implicit expressionfor Jline

01 (vs, Ldiff) given by Lax [2] can only beinverted by assuming large surface recombina-tion velocities (2Dn/(vsLdiff) ≪ 1) [3]. In orderto widen the validity limits of the evaluation,an empirically found correction factor was in-troduced [4] and results in:

with doping level NA, elementary charge q,Euler’s number e, intrinsic carrier density ni,and minority carrier diffusion constant Dn.

We apply this approach to a 2×2 cm2 sizedsilicon solar cell shown in Fig. 1. The deviceis manufactured by a laboratory-scaled processfrom multicrystalline float zone material thatguaranties a limited influence of metallic im-purities. Jline

characterized by j01. The required distributionof the local voltage was obtained from electro-luminescence imaging (not shown here). Thecalculated vs is given in Table 1.

A comparison of this result with a methodbased on LBIC measurements [5] shows thatthe value obtained there is about a factor 10lower than measured by DLIT (see Tab. 1).LBIC generates the charge carriers by illumi-nating the sample by lasers, which have a pe-netration depth in silicon of 15 and 37 µm. Forthis reason it is mainly sensitive for the prop-erties of the bulk and gives a direct measureof the diffusion length Ldiff within the adjacentgrains, with negligible influence of recombina-tion in the emitter or at the rear side of the so-lar cell. Hence the obtained data give a reliablevalue for describing the diffusion processes to-wards the GB in the bulk. In contrast to that,DLIT measures the power dissipation withinthe whole device and thus is also sensitive torecombination outside of the bulk. For thatreason jback

01 corresponds to an effective diffu-sion length Leff, which is slightly lower thanLdiff due to additional recombination paths.

Applying the data, which are obtained fromfitting the shape of LBIC contrast profiles ac-cording to [5], to the model of Lax [2] re-sults in a value of Jline

01 , which is only a fac-tor of 1.4 lower than measured by DLIT (seeTab. 1). Since LBIC is sensitive to recombi-nation within the bulk while DLIT measuresall recombination, this deviation indicates thatthere are additional recombination paths be-yond the bulk, which are caused by the GB.They might take place within the depletion re-gion [6] or at the surfaces [7] of the solar cell,as former studies indicate.

Such recombination paths are not imple-mented in the models underlying the DLITevaluation or the LBIC method until now. Bothmodels assume a vertical grain boundary inan infinitely thick solar cell with negligiblerecombination in the depletion region, at thebackside, and in the emitter. Thus the obtainedvs is realistic, if recombination outside of thebulk region is insignificant, which is obviouslynot the case. Nevertheless, the LBIC proce-dure complies with these assumptions due toits sensibility for the bulk properties quite welland may give meaningful values of vs to de-scribe the recombination at the GB within thebulk region. However, the DLIT measurementindicates that the influence of a GB on the solarcell performance cannot be characterized onlyby this surface recombination velocity.

Influence of sample thickness and probe size on the Z-contrast of

SRO/PCMO superlattices

R. Hillebrand, E. Pippel, I. Vrejoiu, and D. Hesse

Perovskite structures show a broad spec-trum of interesting and useful physicalproperties, like (anti)ferromagnetism,(anti)ferroelectricity and multiferroicity[1]. Here, we study multilayer structures ofSrRuO3/Pr0.7Ca0.3MnO3 (SRO/PCMO). Thestructures are imaged in a TITAN 80-300 FEImicroscope with a cs-corrected probe. Weconcentrate on a methodical improvement ofthe interpretation of related HAADF-STEMimages. Usually it is assumed (see, e.g., [2])that the intensity of each atomic column isdirectly proportional to its averaged Z-value,and that it does not explicitely depend on thespecimen thickness. We will focus on thetrue influence of the sample thickness and theeffect of the electron probe size.

Our quantitative interpretation of the ex-perimental micrographs is based on HAADF-STEM image simulations. For the crystalmodeling and the simulation of the imagesthe software packages CrystalMaker © andSTEM-WinHREMTM [3] are used. We ap-ply Weikenmeier-Kohl scattering factors. Ac-cording to the experimental conditions, all cal-culations are performed for V=300 kV and∆=cs=0. The direct matching of experimen-tal images and simulated HAADF-STEM pat-terns is carried out by a quantitative compar-ison of intensity profiles across the interface.This methodology is derived and applied in[4], where we also quantify the experimentalimage noise to be smaller than 5%.

Figure 1 shows an experimental image of aPCMO/SRO interface. The intensity profilestaken along the light-blue lines are presentedin Fig. 2(a). The simulated intensity curves(Fig. 2(b)) of PCMO and SRO reveal the the-oretical behaviour for increasing crystal thick-ness. The four experimental 8-bit intensitiesof the atomic columns in Fig. 1 are dividedby the simulated intensities, varying the crys-

Figures 5 and 6 show intensity profilestaken from simulated HAADF-STEM images.Atomic columns follow the scheme: Ru-Ru.75Mn.25-Ru.5Mn.5-Ru.25Mn.75-Mn (fromleft to right), which means ∆Z = 4.75 per step.

Fig. 5 proves that there is a strong thicknessdependence of the Z-contrast. The intensitychanges ∆I for one Ru/Mn compositionstep range from 17.4% (t =11 nm) to 7.5%(t =66 nm) while the background increases.

Fig. 6: Peak profiles at a SRO-PCMO interface(Ru/Mn sub-lattice), t =17 nm - probe size series.Note the increasing background!

The assumed probe size for the TITAN isvaried in Fig. 6 from 0.08 nm (perfectlyaligned) to 0.16 nm (not fully aligned). Thisparameter directly influences resolution andresulting background. Taking a sample thick-ness of t =17 nm, determined in Figs. 1 - 3, aprobe size of 0.12 nm is adequate for intensityvariations of ∆I = 14.4% per composition step,which is clearly above the 5% of experimentalnoise. Larger probe sizes cause a S/N problembased on the background intensities.

In conclusion it turned out that the specimenthickness as well as the probe size strongly in-fluence the Z-contrast. A careful simulation-based interpretation of HAADF-STEM imagesof multilayer structures helps to identify thereal sub-lattice intermixing.

High concentration of Al catalyst atoms in Si nanowires

in cooperation with

D. Isheim and D. Seidman

Northwestern University, Evanston, USA

Silicon is one of the most important semi-conductors. The electrical conductivity can beinfluenced by impurities like Al, which leadsto p-type doping of Si. For an efficient dop-ing of nanostructures a high concentration ofthe dopant is required. Silicon nanowires canbe grown using Al islands on a silicon sub-strate as catalysts [1]. The growth is performedin an ultra high vacuum system with Si(111)wafer as substrate and silane gas for chemicalvapour deposition. The growth temperature isfar below the melting temperature of siliconand lower than the bulk eutectic temperatureof the system Si-Al. The nanowires producedby this method have a metastable shape with alarge surface. A scanning electron microscope(SEM) image of nanowires is shown in Fig. 1.

Fig. 1: SEM image of Si nanowires grown with Alcatalyst at 470 ◦C.

The question arises whether other proper-ties of these nanowires also deviate from equi-librium. The solubility of Al in Si extrapo-lated from high temperature data is quite low atthe typical growth temperatures of nanowires(Fig. 4). Initial attempts to quantify the Alcontent in the Si nanowires by transmission

electron microscope (TEM) energy-dispersiveX-ray spectroscopy (EDX) were not success-ful. A standardless method with high sen-sitivity for impurities and possibility to mea-sure samples with small volume is LEAP (lo-cal electrode atom probe). Individual ions areextracted from the surface of a sharp tip bya combination of static electrical field and ul-tra violet laser pulses. The local electrode in-creases the field strength at the tip. The time offlight of the ions to a position sensitive detec-tor gives information about mass and positionon the tip surface.

Fig. 2 [2]. The nanowire is covered by a pro-tecting Ni layer which prevents damage duringfocused ion beam (FIB) preparation. It has theadditional advantage of metallic conductivity,which helps during LEAP measurement.

LEAP allows a clear separation of the neigh-bouring elements Al and Si. The integratedspectrum of detected masses in Fig. 3 showspeaks for 27Al and the three Si isotopes withmass numbers 28, 29 and 30. Some ionshave a small delay before detaching from thenanowire tip. This leads to the background be-tween the Si peaks and at larger masses. Thestructure of the background without unwantedcounts at the channels corresponding to Al isa clear advantage of LEAP compared to TEMEDX. In EDX the strong Si K peak is accom-panied by a background at smaller energiesand the detection of a small amount of Al inthe samples is difficult, because the count ratein the Al K channels is composed by the SiK background overlapping with the real Al Kcount rate.

Fig. 3: LEAP mass spectrum.

Figure 4 shows measured concentrations ofAl in Si. The red line is an extrapolationof the high temperature data [5] (circles), [6](squares). The extrapolated concentration at410 ◦C is about 3 × 1016 cm−3. Two data pointswith low temperature processed samples areshown for comparison: AIC (Al induced crys-tallisation of amorphous Si) [3] and SPE (solidphase epitaxy) [4]. The red stars show the datapoints obtained by LEAP. The concentration ofAl in the nanowires is about 0.4 % for a growthtemperature of 470 ◦C.

As shown in Fig. 1 the diameter of Sinanowires grown at 470 ◦C changes duringgrowth. The amount of Al built into thenanowire is so high that the Al catalyst par-ticle shrinks continuously during growth. Theradius of a nanowire adapts to the radius of the

catalyst. As expected the nanowires grown at410 ◦C with a smaller Al concentration showedfar less tapering.

One model of the Al incorporation processis based on the preference of Al for edge po-sitions on a Si(111) surface with edges. Thenanowires grow by adding new (111) planeson top of the nanowire at the interface betweenwire and catalyst. Thus the growth front is incontact with the Al-rich catalyst. The growthof a new silicon layer is by propagation ofa step edge which is then terminated by Al.In some cases Al atoms do not escape fromthe step edge during growth of Si and theyare incorporated into the bulk of the growingnanowire.

III-V based semiconductor nanowires(NWs) directly grown on silicon currentlyreceive an upsurge of interest due to theirpotential for realizing advanced electronicand photonic devices integrated with silicontechnology. In contrast to the cubic zincblende (ZB) lattice type of bulk and thinfilm GaAs, GaAs NWs may exhibit partiallyor predominantly hexagonal wurtzite (WZ)crystal phases, often accompanied by twinnedlamellas of cubic GaAs. Even though there isan ongoing debate about the exact value of theWZ GaAs bandgap, it is commonly acceptedthat the interfaces between both phases, WZand ZB, produce a type-II band alignmentwhich should strongly influence electricaland optical properties of NWs. So far, com-paratively little work has been dedicated tocorrelating optical and structural analysesperformed on the very same nanowire [1, 2].

Here, we report for the first time on thedirect correlation between low-temperaturenear-field photoluminescence (PL) spec-troscopy and transmission electron mi-croscopy characterization of the very samesingle GaAs/AlGaAs core-shell NW. As amodel system we use heavily Berylliumdoped GaAs NWs, grown directly on Si (111)substrate. The NWs are subsequently coatedwith AlGaAs to passivate surfaces and toenhance their emission efficiency.

Near-field scanning optical microscopy(NSOM) was used for high spatial resolutionPL imaging of single NWs. The measure-ments were performed in a home-build low-temperature NSOM operating at 10K inside ahigh vacuum chamber. All measurements wereperformed in near-field illumination-collection

mode using an uncoated, chemically etchedsingle mode fiber as near-field probe. For opti-cal excitation, we coupled light from a helium-neon laser at 543 nm into the near-field fiberprobe.

The most significant information is providedby spatial mapping of spectral characteristicsof single NW. Corresponding selected near-field PL spectra along the axis of the same NWare plotted in Fig. 2. The right inset shows aTEM micrograph of this NW, providing a di-rect correlation between TEM structural anal-ysis and local near-field spectral response. Weobserve pronounced spatial variations in theemission spectrum along the length of the wire(Fig. 2). Most remarkably, the strong singlePL band is observed for the top part of theNW, whereas PL spectra of the bottom part ofthe same NW obviously consist of two spectralbands.

By correlatingdirectly optical and TEM analysis, we assignthe emission spectra of the top part of NW tothe pure ZB-type regions, while for twin-richregions we observe the emergence of low en-ergy PL band. The fraction of this PL band isincreasing at the bottom side of the NW, wherea higher density of twin structures with inclu-sions of WZ phase is found. Moreover, the ori-gin of PL peak shift along the NW axis is underdiscussion in the frame of inhomogeneous Bedistribution along the growth direction. Cor-related structural and optical analysis allowsto distinguish and to separate the influence ofcrystal structure and dopant concentration onspectral characteristics of studied NWs. Ourresults present a step forward towards an un-derstanding of the relation between morphol-ogy and band structure and hence toward con-trollable band-gap engineering in such GaAsNWs.

Transverse spin-gradient approximation:

A novel xc functional for non-collinear magnetism

F. G. Eich and E. K. U. Gross

Non-collinear magnetism plays an impor-tant role in the field of spintronics. It emergesdue to the presence of spin-orbit coupling,e.g. in solids with broken inversion symmetry,or when the lattice geometry in an antiferro-magnet causes spin frustration. Spin-density-functional theory (SDFT) is presently the mostwidely used approach for determining the elec-tronic structure of large molecules and solids.Most approximations in SDFT, however, areconstructed for collinear magnetism.

Recently we have shown that it is possibleto extend the very idea of a local spin densityapproximation (LSDA) to non-collinear mag-netism [1]. This is done by taking the uniformelectron gas in the so-called spin-spiral-wave(SSW) state [2, 3] as reference system for theconstruction of a local approximation withinSDFT.

In order to illustrate the idea we briefly re-call the definition of the LSDA. In the LSDAone determines the local exchange correlation(xc) energy density from a function ǫunif

xc (n,m)that depends on the magnitude of the local spinmagnetization m(r) and the local density n(r),

ELSDAxc [n,m] =

d3r ǫunifxc (n(r),m(r)) . (1)

The function ǫunifxc (n,m) itself is determined

from a reference system in which n and m areconstant everywhere in space, i.e., the spin po-larized uniform electron gas.

The SSW state of the uniform electron gasis characterized by a constant density n and bya spin magnetization of the form,

m(r) = m

s cos(q · r)s sin(q · r)√

1 − s2

, (2)

which geometrically is a spiral. The magnitudeof the spin magnetization is constant in space,but its x- and y-components rotate in space

with a wave vector q. The opening angle be-tween the spin magnetization and its constantpart along the z-axis is given by s = sin(θ).Since the electron gas is isotropic the xc energyis determined by four parameters: n, m, s andthe absolute value of the wave vector q = |q|.In analogy to the LSDA, Eq. (1), we have pro-posed the SSW functional

ESSWxc [n,m]

=

d3r ǫSSWxc (n(r),m(r), s(r), q(r)) , (3)

where now a local xc energy density is eval-uated from the local s(r) and q(r) in additionto the local density and magnitude of the spinmagnetization.

We have demonstrated that the local s(r) andq(r) can be defined in terms of transverse gra-dients of the spin magnetization,

s(r) =

D2T(r)

D2T(r) + m4(r)dT(r)

, (4)

q(r) =

D2T(r) + m4(r)dT(r)

m4(r)DT(r). (5)

DT(r) and dT(r) are the transverse componentsof the gradient and the Laplacian of the spinmagnetization, respectively,

DT(r) = |m(r)×(∇⊗m(r))|2 , (6)

dT(r) =∣

m(r)×(

∇2m(r))

2. (7)

The ⊗ in Eq. (6) emphasizes that the gradi-ent of m(r) is a 3 × 3 matrix. Due to thecross product DT and dT measure the first- andsecond-order variations of m perpendicular tothe spin magnetization. This means that ourfunctional – in contrast to the LSDA – is sen-sitive to local changes in the direction of m.

The dependency on transverse gradients hasan important implication for the xc magnetic

field Bxc, which is defined as the functionalderivative of Exc[n,m] with respect to m(r).The xc magnetic field can be split into threecontributions,

Bxc(r) = Bxc,m(r) + Bxc,DT(r) + Bxc,dT (r) , (8)

which arise due to the dependence of ǫSSWxc on

m, DT and dT, respectively. The first termBxc,m, which is already present in the usualLSDA, is always parallel to m. The two newterms are not parallel to m. Hence they implythe presence of a non-vanishing local torquem(r) × Bxc(r) , 0. This local torque is impor-tant, because it provides an additional term inthe equation of motion for the spin magnetiza-tion [4].

In order to demonstrate that a non-vanishinglocal torque is present for non-collinear sys-tems we have calculated the spin magnetiza-tion for a monolayer of chromium atoms in the120◦-Neel state. In Fig. 1 we plot the localtorque for the triangular lattice. The red andblue regions correspond to positive and nega-tive local torques, respectively. From the pat-tern of positive and negative local torque wecan infer the so-called zero-torque theorem,which states that Bxc cannot exert a net torqueon the system, i.e.,

d3r m(r) × Bxc(r) = 0 . Itis important to stress that this local torque iscompletely absent in the LSDA. The arrows in

Fig. 1 represent the local direction of the spinmagnetization and show the 120◦ rotation ofthe spin magnetization which is due to anti-ferromagnetic coupling between the chromiumatoms. The non-collinear structure arises ascompromise between the anti-ferromagneticcoupling and the triangular structure of thechromium monolayer. In a collinear structure,where the spins are only allowed to point “up”or “down”, the spin magnetization would befrustrated.

A similar local torque has been observedfor the chromium monolayer when treated em-ploying the exact-exchange (EXX) approxima-tion to Exc[n,m] [5]. Note however that thenumerical effort to solve the Kohn-Sham equa-tion with orbital-dependent functionals, suchas the EXX, is much bigger. Since mag-netic structures are often larger than the chem-ical unit cell of the system it is importantto have numerically accessible functionals athand. Having in mind the ab initio descrip-tion of spin dynamics this becomes even moreimportant, since the numerical effort for thepropagation of the system is much bigger thana ground-state calculation. With the currentlyavailable numerical facilities this requires theuse of semi-local functionals (GGAs).

We have shown that our new functional re-tains the numerical simplicity of GGAs whilebeing sensitive to changes in the direction ofthe spin magnetization and hence provides alocal torque. Therefore we believe that ourfunctional will prove useful in the ab initio de-scription of spin dynamics.

Steps in the exact time-dependent potential energy surface

A. Abedi Khaledi, F. Agostini, Y. Suzuki, and E.K.U. Gross

One of the biggest challenges in condensed-matter physics and theoretical chemistry isthe description of coupled electron-nuclearmotion. A complete description, in princi-ple, is provided by the full electron-nuclearwave function. However, in practice, the fullelectron-nuclear wavefunction can be calcu-lated only for small systems with very few de-grees of freedom.

The adiabatic separation of electronic andnuclear motion resulting from the Born-Oppenheimer (BO) approximation provides anapproximate picture of a molecule or solid asa set of nuclei moving on a single potential en-ergy surface (PES) generated by the electronsin a specific electronic eigenstate. The conceptof the PES emerging from the BO approxima-tion is an essential tool in interpreting molecu-lar processes. However, the BO approximationbreaks down when two or more BOPES comeclose or cross. Some of the most fascinatingmolecular processes occur in the regime wherethe BO approximation is not valid, e.g. ultra-fast nuclear motion through conical intersec-tions, radiationless relaxation of excited elec-tronic states, intra- and inter-molecular elec-tron and proton transfer, to name a few.

The standard way of studying and interpret-ing these, so-called, “non-adiabatic” processesis to expand the full molecular wave functionin terms of the BO electronic states. Withinthis expansion, non-adiabatic processes can beviewed as a nuclear wave packet with contribu-tions on several BOPESs, coupled through thenon-adiabatic coupling terms which in turn in-duce transitions between the BOPESs. Whilethis provides a formally exact description onemay nevertheless ask: Is it also possible tostudy the molecular process using a single po-tential energy surface?

This question is particularly relevant if onethinks of a classical or semi-classical treatmentof the nuclei where a well-defined single clas-

sical force would be highly desirable.

In our previous works, we have introducedan exact time-dependent potential energy sur-face (TDPES) ǫ(R, t) that, together with an ex-act time-dependent vector potential Aν(R, t),governs the nuclear motion. These conceptsemerge from a novel way to approach the cou-pled electron-nuclear dynamics via an exactfactorization, Ψ(r,R, t) = ΦR(r, t)χ(R, t), ofthe electron-nuclear wavefunction [2, 3]. Thecrucial point of this representation is that thewavefunction χ(R, t) that satisfies the exact nu-clear equation of motion leads to an N-bodydensity and an N-body current density that re-produce the true nuclear N-body density andcurrent density obtained from the full wave-function [2, 3]. In this sense, χ(R, t) canbe viewed as the proper nuclear wavefunc-tion whose time evolution is completely de-termined by the TDPES and the vector po-tential that are unique up to within a gaugetransformation. In other words, if one wants atime-dependent Schrodinger equation (TDSE)whose solution χ(R, t) yields the true nuclearN-body density and current density, then thepotentials appearing in this TDSE are uniquelygiven by ǫ(R, t) and Aν(R, t); there is no otherchoice. This also implies, that the gradient ofthis exact TDPES is the only correct force onthe nuclei in the classical limit (plus terms aris-ing from the vector potential).

In our recent work, we have investigatedthe generic features of the exact TDPES inthe presence of strong non-adiabatic cou-plings. As a major result we observe thatthe exact TDPES exhibits nearly discontinu-ous steps connecting different static BOPES,reminiscent of Tully’s surface hopping [1] inthe classical limit. To investigate the TD-PES in detail, we write it as a sum of twoparts: ǫgi(R, t) = 〈ΦR(t)| Hel((r,R, t) |ΦR(t)〉ris form-invariant under gauge-transformations,whereas ǫgd(R, t) = 〈ΦR(t)| − i∂t |ΦR(t)〉r is the

part that depends on the choice of gauge.We have calculated the TDPES for a numer-

ically exactly solvable model that is designedsuch that there is a very strong coupling be-tween the first two BOPESs (Fig. 1) [4, 5]. Forthe model system studied in our work, the TD-PES is the only potential that governs the dy-namics of the nuclear wavefunction (the vec-tor potential can be gauged away) and providesus with an alternative way of viewing the non-adiabatic processes. We see that in Fig. 2 thegauge-invariant part of the TDPES is charac-terized by two generic features: (i) in the vicin-ity of the avoided crossing, ǫgi(R, t) becomesidentical with a diabatic PES in the directionof the wave-packet motion, (ii) far from theavoided crossing, ǫgi(R, t), as a function of R,is piecewise identical with different BOPESsand exhibits nearly discontinuous steps in be-tween. The latter feature holds after the wave-packet branches and leaves the avoided cross-ing. The gauge-dependent part, ǫgd(R, t), onthe other hand, is piecewise constant in theregion where ǫgi(R, t) coincides with differentBOPESs. Hence ǫgd(R, t) has little effect on thegradient of the total TDPES.

The diabatic feature (i) of the TDPES sup-ports the use of diabatic surfaces as the driv-ing potential when a wave-packet approachesa region of strong non-adiabatic coupling. Thestep feature (ii) is in agreement with the semi-classical picture of non-adiabatic nuclear dy-namics provided by the Tully’s surface hop-

ping scheme, that suggests to calculate theclassical forces acting on the nuclei accordingto the gradient of only one of the BOPESs.While our findings are based on a simplemodel for which the TDSE can be integratednumerically exactly, we expect that the dia-batic shape and the steps are generic featuresoccurring as well in large realistic systems.The next step on our agenda is to develop novelimproved algorithms for the mixed quantum-classical treatment of electrons and nuclei suchthat the features of diabaticity and steps of theexact TDPES are incorporated in the classicalforces on the nuclei.

Spectra from reduced density matrix functional theory

S. Sharma, J. K. Dewhurst, and E. K. U. Gross

Reduced density matrix functional theory(RDMFT) has shown potential for correctlytreating Mott insulators under ambient condi-tions [1]. RDMFT is an attractive electronicstructure method since it is both computation-ally efficient and parameter-free. It is not,however, as well studied as density functionaltheory (DFT), and its performace for stronglycorrelated materials away from ambient con-ditions was unknown. Futhermore, it appeareddifficult to extract a spectral density functionfrom what is fundamentally a ground-state the-ory. Recently, we published an article [2] inwhich we described the extension of RDMFTto the spin-polarised case, and presented amethod for obtaining the photo-emission spec-trum.

The basic variable in RDMFT is the one-body reduced density matrix (1-RDM)

γ(x, x′) ≡ N

Ψ(x, x2 . . . xN)Ψ∗(x′, x2 . . . xN),

where Ψ denotes the many-body wavefunc-tion, N is the total number of electrons, x ≡{r, σ} and all variables except x and x′ are in-tegrated over.

Diagonalization of γ produces a set of or-thonormal functions, the so called natural or-bitals, φi, and occupation numbers, ni. In[2], we extended RDMFT to the non-collinearmagnetic case by treating the natural orbitalsas two-component Pauli-spinors. The neces-sary and sufficient conditions for ensemble N-representability of γ remain the same as forthe spin-unpolarized case [3], namely that 0 ≤ni ≤ 1 for all i, and

i ni = N. In terms of γ,the total ground-state energy of the interactingsystem is

E[γ] = T [γ] +∫

ρ(r)Vext(r) + EH[γ] + Exc[γ],

where T is the kinetic energy and EH is theHartree energy – both known functionals of γ.

The exchange-correlation functional Exc is notknown explicitly and must be approximated.There are several approximations available, in-cluding the so-called ‘power functional’ [1, 4,5] which is used here.

The second of our aims is to determinethe spectral density function from the 1-RDM.This we have done, albeit approximately, byanalyzing the relationship between the Green’sfunction and the density matrix.

We do this by defining the Green’s functionin the basis of natural orbitals:

iGRi j(t − t′) = Θ(t − t′)〈ΨN

0 |{ai(t), a†j(t′)}|ΨN

0 〉,

where ai, a†i

are the creation and annihilationoperators associated with natural orbital i.

By appealing to the Lehmann representa-tion of the Green’s function and limiting themany-body states therein to be single exci-tations around the ground-state, we arrive ata simple expression for the density of states(DOS) in terms of the 1-RDM:

DOS = 2π∑

i

niδ(ω − ǫ−i ) + (1 − ni)δ(ω + ǫ+i ),

where ǫ±i= ∂E/∂ni|ni=1/2.

Following the above procedure, the spectraldensity functions for the strongly correlatedMott insulators NiO, CoO, FeO and MnO arecalculated using the full-potential linearizedaugmented plane wave (FP-LAPW) code Elk[6], developed in-house.

It is immediately apparent from Fig. 1that RDMFT captures the essence of Mott-Hubbard physics: all the Mott insulators con-sidered are insulating in nature. A closer ex-amination of the spectra for NiO, CoO andMnO reveals a good agreement between theRDMFT peaks and the corresponding experi-mental XPS and BIS data. In fact, not only thepeak positions, but also their relative weightsare well reproduced.

We also studied pressure-induced insulator-to-metal phase transitions using RDMFT. Theresults obtained for the magnetic moment inMnO under applied pressure are shown inFig. 2. It is clear that the magnetic momentcollapses from 3.6 µB at optimal volume to0.54 µB at a reduced volume. Further reductionof the volume does not change the moment.Within RDMFT we find a volume collapse of11% which, although somewhat higher thanthe experimental value of 6.6%, captures thecorrect qualitative behaviour of the transition.As part of the investigation into reason behindthis moment collapse we plotted the numberof electrons in the Mn d-states as a function ofvolume (Fig. 2). One notices a redistributionof electrons amongst the symmetry projectedt2g and eg states. At the reduced volume of 0.8the number of eg electrons (neg) starts to re-duce finally leveling off at v/v0 = 0.711. Thisis accompanied by an increase in the t2g statecharge (nt2g). This picture is consistent withthe previous results obtained using dynamicalmean fied theory [7].

To conclude, we introduced a method to cal-culate photo-electron spectra within the frame-work of RDMFT and applied it to Mott in-sulators using a spin-polarized extension ofRDMFT. In Ref. [1] we demonstrated that

RDMFT is able to produce a Mott-Hubbardgap in the absence of long-range magnetic or-der. The new spin-polarized generalization ofRDMFT presented in Ref. [2] allows us toevaluate the magnetic moment and, in partic-ular, the pressure induced collapse of the mo-ment in MnO This phase transition was foundto be caused by the increase in crystal fieldsplitting which in turn is the result of a re-distribution of charge amongst the states witht2g and eg symmetry.

Tuning magnetic anisotropy in metallic multilayers by direct surface

charging

P. Ruiz-Dıaz, T. R. Dasa, and V. S. Stepanyuk

Magnetic anisotropy of nanoscale systems isone of the key parameters for spintronic datastorage and processing. Consequently, it hasreceived considerable attention from both ex-perimental and theoretical perspectives in therecent years. Diverse manners of manipulat-ing and controlling it have been sought and ex-ploited.

Among the wide range of different mecha-nisms, applied magnetic fields, spin torque andSTM/AFM magnetic tips can be mentioned asthe most common employed techniques. Nev-ertheless, very often these methods are non-local and experimentally very complex. Ex-ternal electric fields, which have the advantageof being localized, have thereby emerged as anatural technique for controlling the electronicand magnetic properties of the nanosized sys-tems. Another promising route widely used inelectrochemistry but less investigated in mate-rials science to modify and control the intrin-sic mechanical, transport, electronic and mag-netic properties of materials is the change inthe carrier density or charge doping. Surpris-ingly, charge injection has been found to havestronger effects on the magnetism than exter-nal electric fields. On the other hand, it is wellknown that alloying 3d with 5d elements of-ten lead to an enhancement of the magneticanisotropy energy (MAE).

Hence, we combine both features to inves-tigate from an ab initio perspective the effectsof direct surface charging on the MAE by tak-ing Fe-Pt multilayers as a particular example.It is found that the MAE of the multilayers isdrastically altered upon charge doping. Fur-ther, magnitude and orientation of magnetiza-tion can be controlled at once by varying thecharge doping strength. For these systems,charge doping does not significantly influencethe geometrical structure. The effect of ex-cess electrons (holes) is, in most cases, sim-

ply a modest interlayer expansion (not morethan 2%) in the two outermost layers, yieldinga non-appreciable change of the MAE.

For in-stance, in some cases, a linear-like behavior ofthe MAE as a function of the excess of chargewith a remarkable enhancement in the MAE isobtained, e.g., in Pt/Fe/Pt(100). Strong vari-ations in the MAE as much as 90% can bequantified, see Fig. 1(a) [1]. The linear behav-ior of the MAE is not unique. Pt2/Fe/Pt(100)and Pt/Fe/Pt/Fe/Pt(100) also exhibit a lineardependence. However, due to the large MAEvalues observed in these systems, the direc-tion of magnetization is always preserved (out-of plane). Film systems with iron bilayerssuch as Pt/Fe2/Pt(100), Pt2/Fe2/Pt(100) and

Fe2/Pt(100) are more interesting. Here, be-sides the MAE variations in its magnitude,magnetization reversal may occur upon chargeinjection [1]. Furthermore, the direct rela-tionship between the MAE and the excess ofcharge vanishes, showing a more complex de-pendence as can be seen in Fig. 1(b).

MAE trends can be qualitatively understoodfrom a local perspective. The linear behaviorof the MAE for the system in Fig. 1(a) can beexplained by analyzing the d-orbital-resolvedlocal density of states (LDOS) of the magneticlayers, through the second-order perturbationformula [2]:

MAE ∼ ξ2∑

o,u

|〈ψu|lz|ψo〉|2 − |〈ψu|lx|ψo〉|2

ǫu − ǫo(1)

where {ψo,ψu} stand for the unoccupied (oc-cupied) states and {lx, lz} the angular momen-tum operators respectively. The ξ parameteris an average of the spin-orbit coupling coef-ficient. The main contributions to the MAEcome from the dxy and dxz orbitals. These

orbitals are coupled with each other throughthe lx operator leading to the variations in theMAE arising from the second term in Eq. 1.In the hole doping regime (positive charging),the dxz orbitals remain unchanged, while thedxy orbitals drop near the Fermi level decreas-ing the spin-orbit coupling between them. Thisresults in an enhancement of the MAE. Suchreduction is monotonous (due to the gradualdepletion of dxy orbitals as the number of holesis increased (see Fig. 2) explaining the ob-served linear enhancement of the MAE uponhole doping. When electrons are added to thesample, the coupling between the dxz and dxyorbitals increases leading to a reduction of theMAE. Further, magnetic anisotropy can be re-lated to the orbital moment anisotropy. Forcharged systems featuring strong hybridiza-tions but moderate spin-orbit coupling interac-tions Bruno’s relation (∆ESOC = − ξFe

is fulfilled [3], see inset of Fig. 2. The largespin-orbit coupling of the non-magnetic lay-ers determines the MAE magnitude and thehybridizations can be tuned by the excess ofcharge (holes). Some of the MAE features ob-served in the multilayers can also be traced inthe spin and orbital moment variations of themagnetic layers.Surface charging results in direct conse-quences in both magnitude and direction ofmagnetization. Charge doping drasticallymodifies the magnetic properties of metallicmultilayers and it can thereby be used as apromising technique for engineering novel ma-terials with potential technological implica-tions, since by controlling the charge carriersdensity, the direction of magnetization of themultilayers sample can be tailored either to beout-of plane or in-plane.

Here we report on the impact of the struc-tural changes on the magnetic interactions inthin ferromagnetic films. Of particular inter-est is the response of the exchange interactionthat determines both magnetic ground stateand spin excitations. Since the excitations cru-cially influence the dynamic as well as ther-modynamic properties of magnets, the inter-play between atomic structure and exchangeinteraction is of great importance for the de-sign of magnetic nanostructures with desiredfunctionality.

We performed experimental and theoreticalstudies of magnon excitations in two Fe filmsof two monolayer (ML) thickness that differ inthe atomic structure: (i) an Fe(110) film pseu-domorphically grown on W(110) and (ii) anFe(111) film grown on the same substrate ontop of a two ML Au buffer layer [1]. In the for-mer case the Fe film grows in bcc-like stack-ing [2], whereas in the latter case it grows infcc-like stacking [3].

The magnons were probed by means of spinpolarized electron energy loss spectroscopy(SPEELS), which has opened a possibility tomeasure the magnons in such ultrathin struc-tures. The magnon dispersion relation is mea-sured along the Γ − K direction of the sur-face Brillouin zone. The SPEELS experi-ments were performed with an incident elec-tron energy of 3.96 eV and a total energy res-olution of about 14.9 meV. The experimen-tally obtained magnon dispersion relation for2Fe/2Au/Fe(110) is shown by solid circles inFig. 1(a). The open circles are experimentaldata obtained earlier on a 2 ML Fe film directlygrown on W(110) [4]. Comparison of the ex-perimental magnon dispersion of the two sys-

tems reveals a strong softening of the magnondispersion relation in the sample with the Aubuffer. For instance, the softening at ∆K‖ = 0.9Å−1 reaches a value of 35 meV. This resultdemonstrates a way of tailoring magnetic ex-citations in low-dimensional structures by ma-terials engineering.

To elucidate the observed experimental re-sults we performed extensive first-principlescalculations. In the calculations we usedthe crystal structure from available experi-ments [2] as well as the crystal structure cal-culated using the VASP code, well knownfor providing accurate total energy and forces.The structural information serve as an inputfor calculations of the electronic and mag-netic properties using a self-consistent Green’sfunction method, which is specially designedfor layered semi-infinite systems. The Heisen-berg exchange parameters were determinedemploying the magnetic force theorem, like-wise implemented within the Green’s functionmethod.

The calculated magnon dispersion relationfor both systems is presented in Fig. 1(b). Thecalculations are in good agreement with the ex-perimental results, apart from small quantita-tive difference in the values of energies. Thisresult shows unambiguously that the magnonsoftening is a consequence of adding the Aubuffer. Analyzing the calculated exchange pa-rameters, we found a strong anisotropy of ex-change interaction for the systems we consid-ered [1]. The strongest interaction takes placebetween atoms of different layers. On the otherhand, in the analysis of the magnon energiesone should take into account that the numberof the nearest neighbors within the layers is

much larger than between the layers.The exchange parameters between Fe mo-

ments of the 2Fe/2Au/W(110) system do notchange significantly if we repeat the calcu-lations for a free standing Fe film (keepingthe atomic arrangement of the 2Fe/2Au/W(110system). Therefore, the role of the Au buffer ismostly reduced to the modification of the Featomic lattice. The change in the exchange pa-rameters is the consequence of the change inthe electronic structures caused by the modifi-cation of the Fe lattice.

To get deeper insight into the properties ofexchange interactions we performed calcula-tions for the 2Fe/2Au/W(110) system with in-creased distance between Fe layers. The cal-culations showed that, on one hand increas-ing the interlayer distance leads to an expecteddecrease of the interlayer exchange parame-

ters. This results from the fact that a rela-tively small increase of the atomic moments isovercompensated by decreasing interlayer hy-bridization. Unexpectedly, at the same timewe observed an increase in the intralayer ex-change parameters and, as a result, an increasein the energies of the acoustic magnons thatbecame closer to the corresponding energies ofthe 2Fe/W(110) magnons.

To understand the microscopic mechanismof the formation of interatomic exchange pa-rameters, we performed the analysis of thefeatures of the density of states (DOS). Wefound strong modification of the DOS closethe Fermi level upon the structural changes.The 3d states responsible for the interlayer hy-bridization appear substantially higher in en-ergy than the states responsible for the in-tralayer hybridization. With increasing inter-layer distance all states move to lower energiesas a consequence of decreasing 3d band width.However, this shift is more important for dxz,dyz, and dz2 states than for dx2−y2 and dxy statessince it brings them close to the Fermi level.The appearance of a large number of statesnear the Fermi energy makes the energy of thesystem sensitive to the deviation of the atomicmoments and constitutes an important factor inthe enhancement of intralayer exchange inter-action.

Our results demonstrate a way of tailoringmagnetic excitations in low-dimensional mag-nets by engineering the electronic structures.

Graphene is a promising material for futurespintronics devices [1]. However, it is essen-tial to understand the underlying mechanismfor the surprisingly fast spin relaxation of con-duction electrons observed in experiment [2].In this context, parameter-free first-principlescalculations are highly desirable. Here, wepresent an ab initio study of the impact ofelectron-impurity scattering on the momentumand spin relaxation time in graphene. The cal-culations are based on our approach developedoriginally for bulk systems [3] and adaptedhere for the film geometry [4]. We consider Cand Si as in-plane impurities and adatoms on afree-standing flat graphene sheet.

Fig. 1: Out-of-plane distances for C and Siadatoms on graphene determined from first princi-ples (with corresponding energetics). Inset: Chargedistribution for a C adatom on top of the bridge po-sition.

Three different positions of an isolated

adatom were simulated: (i) on top of thegraphene hollow site (OH), (ii) on top of thebridge between two host carbon atoms (OB),and (iii) on top of the graphene site (OS).The determined out-of-plane distances of eachadatom configuration and their energetics, ob-tained by using the VASP code [5], are shownin Fig. 1. For both carbon and silicon adatoms,the position OB is energetically preferablecompared to the two others. In addition, Fig. 1shows the charge density contour plots on avertical plane intersecting the graphene bridgeand the C adatom. The latter one inducesa strong change of the charge density gradi-ent, which via the change in the potential in-creases the effective spin-orbit coupling (SOC)[4] drastically.

The electronic structure of graphene wascalculated by means of a fully relativisticKorringa-Kohn-Rostoker method [6]. The mo-mentum and spin relaxation times are ob-tained from the calculated microscopic transi-tion probability expressed via Fermi’s goldenrule as [4]

To calculate these quantities, we assumeni = 2 × 1012 cm−2, similar to estimationsbased on experimental data for charged impu-rities [8]. Such an impurity concentration pro-vides the dilute limit for which Eq. (1) is valid.

The main result of our work is shown in Ta-ble 1, where the momentum and spin relax-ation times provided by C and Si adatoms arepresented in comparison to the related in-planeimpurities. The calculations are performed atthe energy of 0.12 eV above the Dirac point,which corresponds to a carrier density set by agate voltage in experiment [2].

Tab. 1: The momentum relaxation time τ and thespin relaxation time T1 for C and Si impurities ontop of the bridge (OB) and on the in-plane hollowsite (IH) positions. The results are shown for thespin polarization out of the graphene plane.

Experiment [2] ∼ 10 fs ∼ 100 ps

We find the in-plane impurity position (IH)to yield reasonable values for τ, with respectto the experimental data, for both impurityatoms. However, the corresponding spin relax-ation time is on the microsecond scale, whichis a common theoretical expectation for thespin relaxation caused by the intrinsic SOC ingraphene [1]. Thus, such light impurities as

C and Si atoms within the graphene sheet cannot modify the SOC significantly. On the otherhand, the spin relaxation time becomes ordersof magnitude shorter in the case of both C andSi impurities in the OB position. In particu-lar, Si adatoms yield values of T1 comparableto the experimental data. Consequently, for afast spin relaxation a strong change of the po-tential in the out-of-plane direction caused byadatoms is important.

Remarkably, Si adatoms yield also the mo-mentum relaxation time close to the experi-mental data. However, the obtained τ is aboutfour times larger for adatoms in comparisonto impurities in plane. Thus, the momentumrelaxation in graphene is more affected by in-plane impurities than by adatoms. By contrast,the contribution of the adatoms to the spin re-laxation is incredibly enhanced with respect toother impurities. For instance, the relevant ra-tio τ/T1 is about 10−9 for Si impurities in theIH position, while it is increased up to ∼ 10−3

for Si adatoms. This shows that adatoms playthe role of spatial spin hot spots [4] in analogyto the momentum-space spin hot spots [9].

Double photoemission experiments using time-of-flight spectroscopy with

a laboratory megahertz high-harmonic light source

C.-T. Chiang, M. Huth, A. Trutzschler, M. Kiel, F. O. Schumann, J. Kirschner, and W. Widdra

The interaction between electrons in solidsis one of the most important topics in physicsunderlying superconductivity, magnetism andoxide electronics. Among all spectroscopicmethods, double photoemission (DPE) experi-ments allow direct access to the electron cor-relation because the energy and momentumsharing between two electrons could be re-vealed [1]. However, due to the long acquisi-tion time of DPE experiments, an alternativetunable light source in laboratory other thansynchrotron radiation is required. Here wedemonstrate DPE experiments using a high-order harmonic generation (HHG) light sourcein combination with time-of-flight (ToF) spec-troscopy.

The optimization of a HHG light source forToF photoemission spectroscopy requires con-siderations on the photoelectron count rate, therepetition rate, and the space charge effects dueto Coulomb repulsion between photoelectrons.In Fig. 1 the overview of photoemission ex-periments is shown which includes the onsetof space charge effects at one emitted photo-electron per pulse and additional limits of theToF spectroscopy such as the minimum ToFthrough the drift tube and the maximum detec-tion rate. The working region for ToF spec-troscopy is marked as the hatched region inFig. 1, and our present work benchmarks an ef-ficient combination of HHG light source withToF spectroscopy.

The HHG light source is driven by an Yb-fiber laser system with a pulse energy of 14 µJat 0.7 MHz or 10 µJ at 1 MHz. The laser pulsesare focused into a gas jet in a vacuum cham-ber and the generated light is focused ontothe sample in a UHV chamber by a toroidalgrating [6]. By using Ar as the generationmedium, photons with energies up to 40 eVcan be generated at 0.7 MHz and the spec-trum is shown in Fig. 2. Here the light is

reflected from a Ag(100) surface to a chan-nelplate and the absolute photon flux can be es-timated by using the reflectivity of Ag (≈ 0.1)and the detection efficiency of the channelplate(≈ 0.1). The maximum photon flux from Ar is1 × 105 photons/s at 32 eV.

The photon flux can be greatly enhanced byusing Xe as shown by the spectra in Fig. 2.Due to the high photon flux these spectra haveto be measured indirectly by the number ofphotoelectrons entering the ToF spectrometerwithin an acceptance angle of 3 ◦. The photonflux from Xe is estimated as 5×107 photons/sat 16 eV and the maximum photon flux is8×108 photons/s at 25 eV. At 1 MHz we ob-tain a lower photon flux of 2×108 photons/s at22.7 eV due to the lower pulse energy from

the driving laser. At this photon energy upto 1×105 photoelectrons/s can be measured bythe ToF spectrometer which is indicated inFig. 1.

Using this HHG light source we furtherdemonstrate DPE experiments. As shownin the inset of Fig. 3, experiments were per-formed in normal incidence geometry with twoToF spectrometers which have a 30◦ accep-tance angle each and are mounted at ± 45◦

in coplanar geometry. Two photoelectrons,which are collected separately by the two ToFspectrometers, are analyzed as a pair if theirToF coincide within a time interval of 100 ns.

In Fig. 3 we show the count rate of pair eventsversus the count rate of single photoelectronsmeasured from the Ag(100) surface and fromthe NiO films. In this double logarithmic plottrue coincidence events have a linear depen-dence with a slope of one whereas accidentalevents follow a line with slope of two. Com-paring the data measured on NiO films withthat on the Ag(100) surface, we observe ahigher DPE count rate from the NiO films ata given single photoemission count rate. Thisobservation implies a higher DPE intensity dueto the stronger electron correlation in NiO thanin Ag [8] and is the topic in further ongoingstudies.

To summarize, we use a fiber laser to drivehigh-order harmonic generation at megahertzrepetition rate and produce light with photonenergies up to 40 eV. We provide a completelynew designed HHG source with near opti-mum conditions for ToF photoelectron spec-troscopy. Double photoemission experimentswith this laboratory light source have been re-alized and reveal an increase in the coinci-dence count rate measured on strongly elec-tron correlated NiO films as compared to theAg(100) surface, suggesting further experi-ments on other selected systems, like CoO andMnO.
