Photo emission process is often envisaged as three steps
•Absorption and ionisation - (initial state effect)
•Response from atom and creation of photoelectron -(final state effect)
•Transport of electron to surface and escape - (extrinsic loss)

IntroductionX-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS)X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy works by irradiating a sample material with mono energetic soft x-rays causing electrons to be ejected.
Identification of the elements in the sample can be made directly from the kinetic energies of these ejected photoelectrons.
The relative concentrations of elements can be determined from the photoelectron intensities.

Basic equations:
The relationship governing the interaction of a photon with a core level is:
KE= hν - BE – Φ
• KE = kinetic energy of ejected photoelectron• hν = characteristic energy of X-ray photon• BE = binding energy of the atomic orbital• from which the electron originates. • Φ = spectrometer work function

• (a) Al and • (b) Ag sources. Spectrum • (b) is a clear illustration of the greater
analysis depth of the Ag source as the element : oxide ratio is greater than that acquired with the Al source. An oxide thickness of 1.8nm indicated here was confirmed by independent angle resolved measurements.

Binding Energy Referencing
When analysing insulating samples more care is requiredbecause of sample charging and the uncertainty in the location of the Fermi Level within the band gap.
The term Binding energy is often used without specifyingthe reference level.
Take care when evaluating spectra !

Auger parameterThe Auger parameter is defined as:
A.P. = K.E(Auger) - K.E.(photoelectron) + Photon Excitation Energy = K.E.(Auger) + B.E.(photoemission)
Where K.E.(Auger) and B.E.(photoemission) are normally measured for the most intense photoemission and sharpest Auger lines available.
Its advantage as a probe of charges in screening energy is that (unlike photoemission or Auger line measurements taken separately) it is independent of energy referencing problems whilst still being measurable to a high precision. Hence small shifts in its value can be measured and interpreted.
