My main field of interest is the interaction of charged particles -mainly electrons and ions- with solid surfaces. This is of particular interest for applications in quantitative surface analysis with particle beams, for techniques such as Auger electron spectroscopy (AES), x-Ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS) and the like.
XPS reference data (for IAP members only)
I have recently written a www-tutorial on quantitative electron spectroscopy that is now online.
To download some data for physical parameters used in electron spectroscopy, such as the inelastic mean free path etc., go here.
The contribution of our group to this field of research is described here.

Novel apparatus for Momentum Vector Spectroscopy (MOVES) to study secondary electron emission from solids
We are building a coincidence spectrometer to study correlated secondary electron emission from solids under bombardment with ions, photons and electrons More...
European Conference on Surface and Interface Analysis (ECASIA'05)
I had the privilege to chair the eleventh ECASIA'05 in Vienna from Sept. 25-29 that was organized by our group, together with a few other institutes of the TU Vienna. More...
I have recently contributed a chapter to a book on surface and interface analysis by means of Auger- and x-Ray photoelectron spectroscopy.
Auger-Photoelectron Coincidence Spectroscopy
Recently, we have shown that by measuring photoelectrons in coincidence with Augerelectrons that have lost a fraction of their original energy it is possible to select the depth range from which individual photoelectrons originate More...
Simulation of Electron Spectra for Surface Analysis (SESSA)
SESSA is a unique tool for researchers active in the field of surface and interface analysis. It allows a user to retrieve data relevant for a specific electron spectroscopy experiment in a matter of a few mouseclicks and, in addition, it provides simulated spectra that can be compared with experimental data to gain information on the specimen structure.
