1. Scope
This guide describes an approach to enable users and analysts to determine the calibrations and standards useful to obtain meaningful surface chemistry data with x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and to optimize the instrument for specific analysis objectives and data collection time.
This guide offers an organized collection of options to efficiently plan XPS experiments. The users can range from practiced surface scientists to those that have less experience.
Keywords
x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy; XPS; calibration; design of experiment; sample preparation; binding energy; repeatability; linearity; resolution; data reporting
The title and scope are in draft form and are under development within this ASTM Committee.
