The experimental station is shown in the figure above. It is a twin chamber system consisting of an ARPES and preparation chamber connected with a gate valve. The ARPES chamber is a UHV chamber made of µ-metal which houses the hemispherical sector electron energy analyzer system (Omicron AR-65 type) mounted on twin-axis goniometer to record the ARPES data at desired angular position. The chamber is equipped with a sample manipulator, which is useful to position the sample and record the data at any temperature in the range 120 – 1000 K, twin anode X-ray source for XPS(ESCA) studies, LEED-Auger gun for characterization of the sample’s surface morphology and aligning to record ARPES data, residual gas analyzer, pumping station, viewing ports etc. The electron analyzer is capable of an energy resolution of 20meV and its angular resolution is 1º. The second chamber called sample preparation chamber is a double walled stainless steal UHV chamber which can be cooled with liquid nitrogen and has a sample manipulator with heating facility up to 800ºC, load lock system, Argon sputter-etch gun, effusion cell and RHEED system for preparation and characterization of samples in situ. The sample size, which can be accommodated on the sample holder, is 15 mm dia and 0.5mm thickness. The type of the samples on which PES studies can be performed using this beamline, are non-volatile (UHV compatible) solid samples. The experimental station is maintained at ultra high vacuum condition of better than 2x10^-10 Torr pressure.
