Improvements in the Reliability of X-Ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy for Surface Analysis
Powell, Cedric J.
Journal of Chemical Education, v81 n12 p1734 Dec 2004
A survey of progress made over the past ~30 years (1970 - 2004) to improve the reliability of surface analyses by XPS is presented. The basic principles of XPS are very simple yet there is considerable complexity in designing experiments, interpreting data, and analyzing the results for the many different modes of operation and many different types of specimen materials.
