Photoelectron and Auger Spectroscopy PDF
by Thomas Carlson
Part of the Modern Analytical Chemistry series
Description
In 1970 when I first seriously contemplated writing a book on electron spectroscopy, I recognized the impossibility of completely reaching my desired goals.
First, the field was expanding (and still is) at such a rate that a definitive statement of the subject is not possible.
The act of following the literature comprehensively and summarizing its essential content proved to be a diver- gent series.
On the other hand, the field has increased to such a size that violent changes in its basic makeup no longer occur with the frequency that was present in its early days.
Furthermore, the excitement of electron spectro- scopy lies in its many-faceted interrelationships.
In the era of specialization, electron spectroscopy is an open-ended subject continually bringing together new aspects of science.
I wished to discuss not just one type of electron spectro- scopy, but as many as would be possible.
The book as it stands concentrates its attention on x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, but also presents the basis of Auger electron spectroscopy and uv photoelectron spectroscopy, as well as mentioning many of the other branches of the field.
A large, many-author volume might be an answer to some of these problems.
However, though anyone person possesses only a limited amount of expertise, I have always enjoyed books by a single author since what they lack in detailed knowledge they gain in a unified viewpoint.
I hope the final product, though limited in its attainment of these goals, will still be of some merit.
