The non-destructive depth profile obtained using variable kinetic energy XPS is compared to that from the destructive argon ion bombardment depth profile from the lab XPS instrument. All of the data indicate that the near surface region of both the ammonium form and steamed Y zeolites is strongly enriched in aluminum. It is shown that when the inelastic mean free path of the photoelectrons is taken into account the laboratory XPS of aluminosilicates zeolites does not provide a true measurement of the surface stoichiometry, while variable kinetic energy XPS results in a more surface sensitive measurement. A comprehensive Si/Al concentration profile as a function of depth is developed by combining the data from the three surface characterization techniques. The LEIS spectroscopy reveals that the topmost atomic layer is further enriched in Al compared to subsequent layers.">Abstract</span> | ||

Overview of the processing options on the XPS Nexsa
The acquisition of an instrument like the Nexsa has to be done through a EU tender process. As a somewhat unexpected result of this process, we were offered the Nexsa at a very favorable price. We were therefore able to squeeze all but one of the available options into the budget. That is, of course, very nice indeed, but it also means that we will have to investigate the applications of the various techniques as there is no applications waiting for a specific technique to become available.
We have therefore compiled the table below that contains articles and application notes in which several of the available techniques are used
The columns contain the following information (excluded are the columns where the content is evident):
- Title: Click on the title to access a pdf version of the article/application note.
- Web of Science: Click here to access the article in the Web of Science database (log on to WoS via DTU Inside in advance, click this link ). This will enable you to browse the cited references and citations of the article.
- Abstract: Hover the mouse over the text to show the abstract of the article.
Please don't hesitate to contact us if you find a relevant article to include in the table. Or if any of the articles listed is not suitable.
