Essential Principles and Practices in X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy

This article, sourced from ArXiv, likely provides a detailed overview of X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS). It would cover the fundamental principles behind the technique, including the photoelectric effect, core-level excitation, and the analysis of emitted photoelectrons. The 'practices' aspect would probably delve into experimental setups, sample preparation, data acquisition, and data analysis techniques. The focus is on a specific analytical technique used in materials science and surface science.
