Dr Bo Da has been engaged in developing novel measurement-analysis methods to extract more information from measured spectra by surface analysis techniques. For instance, he developed the reverse Monte Carlo method to extract optical constant of bulk material from measured surface electron spectra, and the extended Mermin method to determine low energy electron mean free path of bulk material. Most recently, Da’s research focus has been largely related to development of new measurement-analysis method for nanomaterial samples. The virtual substrate method developed by him represents a benchmark for surface analysis to provide “free-standing” information about supported nanomaterials, and brought him President’s Prize awarded by NIMS. He has had ten first-author papers related to these new methods published in various journals, including Nature Communications, Physical Review Letters and Journal of Applied Physics, among others.

Characterization techniques available for bulk or thin-film solid-state materials have been extended to substrate-supported nanomaterials, but generally non-quantitatively. This is because the nanomaterial signals are inevitably buried in the signals from the underlying substrate in common reflection-configuration techniques. Here, we propose a virtual substrate method, inspired by the four-point probe technique for resistance measurement as well as the chop-nod method in infrared astronomy, to characterize nanomaterials without the influence of underlying substrate signals from four interrelated measurements. This method in secondary electron (SE) microscopy, a SE spectrum (white electrons) associated with the reflectivity difference between two different substrates can be tracked and controlled. The SE spectrum is used to quantitatively investigate the covering nanomaterial based on subtle changes in the transmission of the nanomaterial with high efficiency rivaling that of conventional core-level electrons. The virtual substrate method represents a benchmark for surface analysis to provide “free-standing” information about supported nanomaterials.
