Abstract

In this chapter we will discuss spectroscopic methods that involve inner electrons [5.1]. Such electrons are much more strongly bound than outer electrons and the interaction energies become correspondingly high. Two kinds of methods are used to study inner electrons, those that are based on absorbed or emitted X-ray radiation (X-ray spectroscopy) and those dealing with energy measurements on emitted photo-electrons (photo-electron spectroscopy (XPS or ESCA).
