To determine the thermodynamic temperature of a solid surface from the electron energy distribution measured by photoelectron spectroscopy, it is necessary to accurately evaluate the energy broadening of the photoelectron spectrum and investigate its temperature dependence. Broadening functions in the photoelectron spectrum of Au(110)’s surface near the Fermi level were estimated successfully using the relationship between the Fourier transform and the convolution integral. The Fourier transform could simultaneously reduce the noise of the spectrum when the broadening function was derived. The derived function was in the form of a Gaussian, whose width depended on the thermodynamic temperature of the sample and became broader at higher temperatures. The results contribute to improve accuracy of the determination of thermodynamic temperature from the photoelectron spectrum and provide useful information on the temperature dependence of electron scattering in photoelectron emission processes.

Temperature measurement of aluminum surfaces by remote sensing of infrared radiation is difficult because of the low and varying emissivity of aluminum. The variation in emissivity may be dependent on factors like surface roughness, surface oxides, temperature, or wavelength of the measurement. In order that the factors which affect the emissivity of pure aluminum might be studied, a specialized emission accessory was built to be used in conjunction with a Fourier transform infrared spectrometer. This paper describes the design of the accessory and presents emission spectra and emissivity curves demonstrating the accessory's capabilities.
