What Does PES Stand For?

PES stands for Photoelectron Spectroscopy

Photoelectron Spectroscopy (PES) is a sophisticated analytical technique used to study the electronic structure of materials. By measuring the kinetic energy of electrons ejected from a sample upon exposure to ultraviolet or X-ray light, PES provides insight into the binding energies of electrons, allowing researchers to identify chemical composition, oxidation states, and electronic states. This technique is widely utilized in the fields of chemistry, material science, and surface science for characterizing solids, liquids, and gases.
