ELIMINATION OF SAMPLE CHARGING IN UV PHOTOEMISSION FROM SINGLE CRYSTALS OF SEVERAL POLYCYCLIC HYDROCARBONS

Abstract
UV photoemission spectra of single crystals of polycyclic hydrocarbons were measured using two methods, 1) covering a sample with a thin layer of gold and 2) inducing photoconduction in the sample with low-energy light, to eliminate sample charging. Their ionization thresholds obtained are all smaller than the values for corresponding polycrystalline thin films.
