Ion Spectroscopies for Surface Analysis

Determining the elemental composition of surfaces is an essential measurement in characterizing solid surfaces. At present, many ap­ proaches may be applied for measuring the elemental and molecular composition of a surface. Each method has particular strengths and limitations that often are directl...
