摘要:

利用扫描透射电子显微镜中的电子能量损失谱,对 epitaxial graphene 多层结构中反键 $π^\ast$ 态和 $σ^\ast$ 态的空间分布进行了成像。非弹性沟道模拟验证了将空间分辨信号解释为电子轨道的合理性,并证明材料厚度对实验分辨未占据态分布的能力具有关键影响。该工作展示了芯能级电子能量损失谱在多种材料中直接可视化电子轨道的当前潜力,这对于更好地理解固体界面和缺陷处的化学键合及其他诸多性质具有重大意义。

英文摘要:

The spatial distributions of anti-bonding $π^\ast$ and $σ^\ast$ states in epitaxial graphene multilayers are mapped using electron energy-loss spectroscopy in a scanning transmission electron microscope. Inelastic channeling simulations validate the interpretation of the spatially-resolved signals in terms of electronic orbitals, and demonstrate the crucial effect of the material thickness on the experimental capability to resolve the distribution of unoccupied states. This work illustrates the current potential of core-level electron energy-loss spectroscopy towards the direct visualization of electronic orbitals in a wide range of materials, of huge interest to better understand chemical bonding among many other properties at interfaces and defects in solids.
