DURIP Quantum photonics and plasmonic nanostructured films characterization by X-Ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy
Abstract
This proposal requests the purchase of a K-Alpha X-Ray Photoelectron Spectrometer (XPS)at Florida International University (FIU, Miami, FL). The instrument will be used for surfaceanalysis of materials and nanomaterials and for determination of the elemental composition ofthe surface, the chemical states of the constituting elements, as well as the electronic structure ofthe studied materialsand compounds. The proposed instrument will be housed in the AdvancedMaterials Engineering Research Institute (AMERI)#the shared instrumentation facility of theCollege of Engineering and Computing at FIU. The XPS will be accessible on continuous basisfor hands-onmaterials characterization and experiments conducted by student, postdoctoral, andfaculty researchers from multiple colleges and academic departments around campus, as well asto academic and industrial users outside FIU. Importantly, there is no XPS capability atFIU or within a 100 miles radius and the proposed instrument will filled unmet needs in surface characterization of materials.
