Experimental Study of Electronic States at Metal-Dielectric Interfaces.

Abstract

Because infrared surface plasmons on metal surfaces propagate for many wavelengths, a mesurement of the transport of these excitations can be used to monitor the surface itself. Using the metal edge with a broadband continuous source. Measurements of the transmission of IR surface plasmons across metal surfaces covered with a chemisorbed atomic monolayer or with thin dielectric or molecular films have been carried out and, compared with those obtained by reflection spectroscopy. Keywords: Plasmons; Broadband; Spectroscopy.
