Definition

  • X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS) is widely used to investigate the chemical composition of surfaces. The ability to explore the first few atomic layers and assign chemical states to the detected atoms has shown XPS to be a powerful addition to any analytical laboratory
Subject area
Surface analysis by XPS is accomplished by irradiating a sample with monoenergetic soft X-rays and analyzing the energy of the detected electrons. Mg
