This review compiles results of experimental and theoretical studies on thin films and
quantum structures of semiconductors with randomly distributed Mn ions, which exhibit …

Hard x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (HAXPES) is establishing itself as an essential
technique for the characterisation of materials. The number of specialised photoelectron …

Ferromagnetic thin films of Heusler compounds are highly relevant for spintronic
applications owing to their predicted half-metallicity, that is, 100% spin polarization at the …

Abstract Three-dimensional (3D) electronic band structure is fundamental for understanding
a vast diversity of physical phenomena in solid-state systems, including topological phases …

Angle resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) is commonly known as a powerful
probe of the one-electron removal spectral function in ordered solid state. With increasing …

Photoelectron spectroscopy has its roots in the Nobel Prize-winning work of Albert Einstein
and Kai Siegbahn. It is therefore both an honor and a humbling experience to produce a …

Soft-X-ray angle-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy (ARPES) with photon energies
around 1 keV combines the momentum space resolution with increasing probing depth. The …

Over the past two decades, the research of (Ga, Mn) As has led to a deeper understanding
of relativistic spin-dependent phenomena in magnetic systems. It has also led to discoveries …

Magnetic doping is expected to open a band gap at the Dirac point of topological insulators
by breaking time-reversal symmetry and to enable novel topological phases. Epitaxial (Bi1 …

Presented here are the photoionization cross sections and parameters of the photoelectron
angular distribution for atomic subshells with binding energies lower than 1.5 keV of all …
