What Does XPES Stand For?

XPES stands for X Ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy

XPES, or X Ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy, is a powerful analytical technique used to study the elemental composition, chemical state, and electronic structure of materials. By measuring the kinetic energy of electrons emitted from a sample when irradiated with X-rays, XPES provides detailed information about surface and near-surface regions at the atomic level. This technique is widely employed in materials science, chemistry, and surface science to understand chemical bonding, oxidation states, and the electronic properties of various materials.
