A recent study saw the Thermo Scientific™ K-Alpha™ X-ray Photoelectron Spectrometer (XPS) System employed in an investigation ...

Discover why surface chemistry matters and how XPS imaging modes enable deeper insight into materials performance.

Disposable elastic gloves are widely used in scientific laboratories and in many industries for the handling of critical surfaces. Typically, they are made from nitrile or latex rubber and provide the ...

X-rays, a type of electromagnetic radiation with wavelengths from 0.01 to 10 nanometers, pack enough energy to pierce materials and interact with inner-shell electrons. 1 When they hit a sample, ...

Photoelectron spectroscopy (PES) is a surface-sensitive analytical technique that provides information about the elemental composition, chemical state, and electronic structure of a material's surface ...

X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy is based on the same principle as all photoelectron spectroscopy methods. If a molecule or material is irradiated with light of a known energy above the ionization ...
