要旨

Rydberg-like image potential states (IPSs) form special series surface states on metal and semiconducting surfaces. Here, using time-resolved and momentum-resolved multi-photon photoemission (mPPE), we measured the energy positions, band dispersion, and carrier lifetimes of IPSs at the 2H-MoS2 surface. The energy minima of the IPSs (n = 1 and 2) were located at 0.77 and 0.21 eV below the vacuum level. In addition, the effective masses of these two IPSs are close to the rest mass of the free electron, clearly showing nearly-free-electron character. These properties suggest a good screening effect in the MoS2 parallel to the surface. The multi-photon resonances between the valence band and IPS (n = 1) are observed, showing a k‖-momentum-dependent behavior. Our time-resolved mPPE measurements show that the lifetime of photoexcited electrons in the IPS (n = 1) is about 33 fs.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
