This review presents an overview of the theory and of various successful approaches to the
interpretation of core-level binding-energy shifts observed in photoelectron spectroscopy …

A comprehensive review is given about the enormous versatility of photoelectron
spectroscopy to study the especially complex interaction of oxygen with metal surfaces and …

Longevity has been a long-standing concern for hybrid perovskite photovoltaics. We
demonstrate high-resilience positive-intrinsic-negative perovskite solar cells by …

It is of environmental significance to study the leaching performance of additives from
microplastics (MPs) and further evaluate the toxicity of leachate to microalgae. Here, we …

CoO and Co3O4 have been studied by high-resolution X-ray photoemission. The
characteristic binding energies in the Co 2p3 2, 2p1 2, and 3s regions, their band shapes …

We have studied the surface chemistry of the nickel-oxygen system using both temperature
changes and ion bombardment as techniques for elucidating the surface structure. The …

The role of metastable surface oxides in the reduction of CO2 on lead, bismuth, tin, and
indium electrodes was probed using in situ attenuated total reflectance infrared (ATR-IR) …

Photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) is used to characterize the surface ofpyrite, chalcopyrite,
sphalerite and galena after exposure to air and distilled water. After dry grinding and few …

A simple oxide classification has been proposed on the basis of correlation between
electronic polarizabilities of the ions and their binding energies determined by XPS. Three …

The ESCA technique has been employed to characterize various palladium-oxygen species
on the surface of oxi-dized palladium metal. Both oxygen-chemisorbed palladi-um atoms …
