1. X-ray Photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) (Monochromatic Al-Ka line of 1486.7 eV and Dual Magnesium Ka line of 1253.7 eV), UPS (21.2 eV and 40.8 eV), Depth Profiling
MODEL NAME – PHI 5000 VERSAPROBE II, MAKER – PHYSICAL ELECTRONICS
Equipment: Customized PHI 5000 VersaProbe II Scanning X-ray Microprobe system equipped with high flux X-ray source (Aluminum anode with quartz crystal for monochromatic X-ray probe), multi-channel hemi-spherical electron energy analyzer, charge neutralizer and Ar ion sputtering and annealing under UHV. It is designed for rapid, spatially resolved (micron scale) elemental and chemical analysis of surfaces, even in the insulating nature of sample surfaces. UPS can determine the work-function of the materials precisely by using sample biasing while XPS gives true chemical state imaging and multi-point spectroscopy in an automated environment with depth profiling XPS also.
Applications:
Organic, inorganic, and composite advanced materials research
Surface chemistry, corrosion, catalysis, and adhesion
Thin film coatings, Glass and Ceramic Samples Characterization
Tribology surface interactions, material and lubricant transfer characterization
Magnetic storage media and complex multilayer structures
Semiconductor and photovoltaic process, contamination, and failure analysis
