Inelastic background modelling applied to Hard X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy of deeply buried layers: a comparison of synchrotron and lab-based (9.25 keV) measurements j.mp/3gbRZEK via Elsevier Physics

Interested in liquid Ga HAXPES measurements? A great paper "Inelastic background modelling applied to Hard X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy of deeply buried layers" out now. Remember you can get access to such systems via us doi.org/10.1016/j.apsu…

...It's the night before XPSmas...

Damn, maybe new animaniacs ain’t so bad.

New publication from my group addressing quality control/assurance of commercial graphene! Rapid monitoring of graphene exfoliation using NMR proton relaxation - now published in Nanoscale pubs.rsc.org/en/content/art…

Despite all of the fantastic resources out there on proper XPS analysis, there is still a worrying number of bad XPS fitting that passes review.
