This zero point has previously been identified with the inflection point in the Fermi-edge region of a valence-band photoemission spectrum of nickel. Comparison of photoemission spectra of nickel and silver measured with monochromated x-rays shows that the inflection points near the Fermi edge differ by 45±5 meV (where the stated uncertainty indicates the standard uncertainty) at an instrumental energy resolution of 0.30 eV. This difference is due to differences in the valence-band densities of states (DOS) of the two metals. Simulations of the Ni photoemission spectrum have been performed based on the DOS calculated by Eckhardt and Fritsche, and the simulated spectrum agrees well with the measured spectrum in the near-edge region. Additional simulations of the Ni photoemission spectrum have been carried out with both monochromated Al x-rays and unmonochromated Mg and Al characteristic x-rays to determine how the Ni near-edge inflection point varies with the energy resolution of the electron energy analyzer in XPS. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

The Vasa sank on its maiden voyage in 1628, and was recovered in 1961 after 333 years in the cold brackish water of Stockholm harbor. After extensive conservation treatment, the oaken Vasa appeared in good condition (1). However, high acidity and a rapid spread of sulfate salts and elemental sulfur were recently observed on many wooden surfaces. A research team led by Prof. Magnus Sandström, University of Stockholm, has approached the problem by using X-ray absorption near edge spectroscopy (XANES) at the sulfur Kedge. The data were recorded on SSRL's Beam Line 6-2 (2)-for the first time on wooden core samples-to speciate the sulfur compounds (3,4). The XANES spectra, measured on samples extracted at various depth of the cores, unexpectedly revealed large amounts of embedded elemental sulfur (0.2-4 mass%) in the wood, also sulfate and, in minor amounts, several sulfur compounds of intermediate oxidation states (Figure 2). X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS; 5) was in addition used to quantify all elements at the same depths (cf. Figure 2,3). The study shows that in humid museum atmospheres a stepwise sulfur oxidation produces sulfuric acid:

High-resolution valence band spectra were obtained with an x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) instrument equipped with a monochromatic high-power Al Ka x-ray source. Several new valence-band structures were observed. Electron energy loss spectra showed the presence of an inelastic peak at about 6.5 e V loss energy. A photoelectron background was synthesized from the electron energy loss spectrum by a convolution procedure. This background gave a good understanding of the valence band spectrum. Valence effective Hamiltonian and extended Huckel calculations were performed to study the XPS intensities of the valence-band structures. The intensities were approximated by utilizing the XPS intensity model with net atomic popUlations. The total intensities were partitioned into intensity contributions from various functional groups of the polyimide. Three energetically separated regions with dominating contributions from the imide nitrogens, the ODA carbons, and the imide oxygens, respectively, were found.

The theoretical shapes of the X-ray K-emission spectra of titanium in both compounds have also been calculated and compared with experiment. A satisfactory agreement of theory and experiment was found. The character of the chemical bonding in titanium cuprides and alloys is discussed.

Binding energies of Al 2s for alumina, N 1s and imide C 1s for Kapton and Sr 3p 3=2 for a strontium titanate film on glass were obtained after static charge referencing with the help of 15 nm gold particles deposited at the surface of the test samples. For the alumina sample C 1s static charge referenced data are also presented. Repeat standard deviations (s r), between standard deviations (s b), reproducibility standard deviations (s R) and total means are evaluated from the experimental data. It can be stated that although the repeat standard deviation is as small as 0.05 eV in the best case, the standard deviation characterizing the reproducibility of the method is obviously not better than 0.15 eV in the best case at the present time. The knowledge of these standard deviations is important for metrology, validations of analytical procedures relying on qualitative photoelectron spectroscopy and XPS databanking.
