Characterization of tungsten tips for STM by SEM/AES/XPS

For the first time, both X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS) and Auger Electron Spectroscopy (AES) techniques were applied in analysis of surface contamination of electrochemically etched Scanning Tunneling Microscope (STM) tungsten tips. Carbon monoxide, graphite, tungsten carbide and tungsten oxide were found as main surface contaminations of STM tungsten tips. The thickness of tungsten ox...

XPS MultiQuant: multimodel XPS quantification software

A program for quantitative evaluation of x-ray photoelectron spectra has been developed to serve as a practical tool for surface chemists. The program uses the ‘classic’ approach of quantification and requires as input the integrated intensities of the measured XPS lines. The usual correction methods and factors can be applied and controlled independently. All necessary basic data for calculati...

Package ‘ xps ’

Description The package handles pre-processing, normalization, filtering and analysis of Affymetrix GeneChip expression arrays, including exon arrays (Exon 1.0 ST: core, extended, full probesets), gene arrays (Gene 1.0 ST) and plate arrays on computers with 1 GB RAM only. It is an R wrapper to XPS (eXpression Profiling System), which is based on ROOT, an object-oriented framework developed at C...
