Journal ArticleDOI

Resolving surface chemical states in XPS analysis of first row transition metals, oxides and hydroxides: Sc, Ti, V, Cu and Zn

TL;DR: Biesinger et al. as mentioned in this paper proposed a more consistent and effective approach to curve fitting based on a combination of standard spectra from quality reference samples, a survey of appropriate literature databases and/or a compilation of literature references and specific literature references where fitting procedures are available.
Journal ArticleDOI

Investigation of multiplet splitting of Fe 2p XPS spectra and bonding in iron compounds

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the usefulness of calculated multiplet peaks to fit high-resolution iron 2p3/2 spectra from high-spin compounds. And they found that the multiplets were found to fit most spectra well, particularly when contributions attributed to surface peaks and shake-up satellites were included.
Journal ArticleDOI

New interpretations of XPS spectra of nickel metal and oxides

TL;DR: In this paper, a scheme for fitting the Ni 2p spectra using multiplet envelopes is proposed, based on charge transfer assignments of the main peak at 854.6 eV and the broad satellite centred at around 861 eV to the cd 9 L and the unscreened cd 8 final state configurations, respectively.
Journal ArticleDOI

X-ray photoelectron spectroscopic chemical state quantification of mixed nickel metal, oxide and hydroxide systems

TL;DR: In this paper, an approach based on standard spectra from quality reference samples (Ni, NiO, Ni(OH)2, NiOOH), subtraction of these spectra, and data analysis that integrates information from the Ni 2p spectrum and the O 1s spectra is demonstrated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Advanced analysis of copper X-ray photoelectron spectra

TL;DR: In this article, the authors extend and extend previously published X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy curve-fitting and data analysis procedures for a wide range of copper containing species.
