Preferred Label : X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy;
Detailed label : X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS);
IUPAC acronym : XPS; ESCA;
IUPAC definition : Any technique in which the sample is bombarded with X-rays and photoelectrons produced
by the sample are detected as a function of energy. ESCA (Electron Spectroscopy for
Chemical Analysis) refers to the use of this technique to identify elements, their
concentrations, and their chemical state within the sample.;
