X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy at Imaging and Chemical Analysis Laboratory (ICAL), MSU-Bozeman part of NNCI Instrument Collection
XPS is a surface sensitive method that determines the composition of one or a few atomic monolayers on mineral surfaces. This instrument has "small spot" capabilities down to 30 micron resolution. Applications include: a) Elemental identification and quantification, b) Chemical functional group identification and quantification; c) Chemical state imaging; d) Surface sensitivity; e) Layer-by-layer depth profiling; f) Analysis of insulating and conducting samples.
