  2. Update on Photocathode • The active layer exists of 3 layers of GaAs (direct bandgap: 1.456) with different doping: • the third layer is 10nm thick with 1x10^18 Zn doping. • The thickness of the following layer is varying (0nm,50nm,100nm,200nm) • The bottom layer has a 2x10^19 Zn concentration and is 10nm thick • Buffer layer Al.75Ga.25As 1um thick layer thick layer (band gap: 2.36eV, IR refractive index 2.95). • GaAs substrate (100) • Grown by MOVPE (Molecular Vapor Phase Deposition) Grown at UIUC by Ryan

  3. AFM Image – before annealing • 2D Surface • Surface roughness : 0.141 nm

  4. After annealing • We have some chunks on the surface after annealing samples

  5. After annealing • We have some chunks on the surface after annealing samples • Surface roughness : rms 0.164nm

  6. Plans in near future • EDS (Energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy) • Analyze chemical composition • Surface Cleaning
