Abstract

We present a study of the quantum well states observed in Cu/Ni(001). Several reports in the recent past have shown that these states, which are derived from the bulk, disperse through the Fermi level at a thickness of about 6 ML. Using angle-resolved photoemission, we have imaged the photoelectron angular distributions from several thicknesses of Cu/Ni(001). We observe that these states have s,p like symmetry and are located near the zone edge.
