Description

The stereo atomscope is realized by taking advantage of the circular dichroism in photoelectron angular distribution (PEAD), where the forward focusing peak positions rotate in the same direction as the circularly polarized X-ray electric vector. The rotation is caused by the angular momentum transfer from the circularly polarized X-ray to the emitted photoelectrons. The azimuthal shifts of the forward focusing peaks from the clockwise (CW) and counterclockwise (CCW) circularly polarized X-rays correspond to the parallax. Here, some recent results of the stereo atomscope are introduced. (author)
