Photoemission study of Gd atoms on CdTe(100) surface
A few monolayers of Gd atoms were evaporated on a clean CdTe(p)(100) (bulk crystal) and CdTe(n)(100) (epitaxial layer) surface. Constant initial state (CIS) spectra were measured at the Gd4d ->, Gd4f Fano resonance tin the photon energy range of 140-160 eV) both after evaporation and heating processes. The binding energy of the Gd4f state was determined after Gd evaporation (9.43 and 9.50 eV for p- and n-type crystals, respectively) and after heating (9.00 and 9.80 eV). Energy distribution curves (EDCs) measured in the photon energy range (50-100 eV) show additional density of states at the valence band edge only for CdTe(n)/Gd crystal.
