Surface Characterization by Electron Spectroscopy for Chemical Analysis (ESCA)

  • Chapter
Characterization of Solid Surfaces

Abstract

Among the many new instrumental techniques to be added to the chemist’s arsenal, electron spectroscopy for chemical analysis (ESCA) is one of the most ideally suited to the examination of surfaces. It is sensitive and quantitative, and signals can be obtained from nearly every element.
