Crystal Size t = Kl/bcosq a-Fe t where: t is the thickness of crystal  to diffraction plane K is a constant that depends on instrument b is the full width at half maximum (FWHM) of the diffraction peak a-Fe t

X-ray Fluorescence X-ray fluorescence gave elemental information

X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy Surface composition and chemistry

X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy Electron spectroscopy for chemical analysis (ESCA) For solid catalyst: K.E. = hu - B.E. - f where K.E. is the kinetic energy of photoelectron B.E. is the binding energy hu is the X-ray energy f is the work function Note: - no photoemission for hu < f - no photoemission for B.E. + f > hu - K.E. increases as B.E. decreases - intensity of photoemission is proportional to the intensity of the photons - a range of K.E. can be produced if valence band is broad - K.E. can be used as fingerprinting technique XPS needs monochromatic X-ray source

X-ray Fluorescence and Auger Electron Emission Photoelectron emission lead to formation of core holes Core holes are eliminated by relaxation that is accompanied by (1) X-ray fluorescence  X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy (2) Auger electron emission  Auger electron spectroscopy

Koopman’s Theorem B.E. = Efinal(n-1) - Einitial (n) The slight discrepancy between the experimental and calculated binding energies arises from: - electron rearrangement in excited state - initial state effects  absorption and ionization - final state effects  response of atom and photoelectron emission - extrinsic losses  transport of electron to surface and escape to vacuum

X-ray Photoelectron Spectrometer X-ray Sources Twin Anode (Mg/Al) - simple and inexpensive - high flux (1010-1012 photons/s) - beam size ~ 1 cm - polychromatic Monochromatic X-ray (uses bent SiO2 crystal) - eliminates satellites - smaller beam size 50 mm

X-ray Photoelectron Spectrometer Electron Energy Analyzer Concentric hemispherical Analyzer (CHA) - the path of electron through the analyzer depends on its K.E. and the applied potentials (V1 and V2) - changing the applied potential, electrons with different K.E. can be detected using a counter - a pre-set “pass voltage” is set to fix the resolution of the CHA

Primary XPS Structure Stepped Background Intensity - only electron close to surface can escape without energy loss (approx. 95% come from 3 l of which 63% are from l) - electrons deeper in the bulk loss part of its K.E. as it travel towards the surface - electron deep in the bulk can not escape more energetic electrons have greater chance of reaching the surface and escaping, thus the “stepped” background effect.

Binding Energy of Electrons

Primary XPS Structure Spin-Orbit Splitting

Primary XPS Structure Auger Peaks - always present in XPS data - more complex and broader than the photoemission peaks - independent of incident hu

Primary XPS Structure Core Level Chemical Shifts - related to the overall charge on the atom reduced charge  increased B.E. - number of substituents - electronegativity of the substituent - formal oxidation state Chemical Shift is important for identifying • functional group • chemical environment • oxidation state Carbon containing gases

Primary XPS Structure Core Level Chemical Shifts for C 1s Note: the effects of chemical environment

Secondary XPS Structure 1) X-ray Satellites caused by poor X-ray source and X-ray fluorescence 2) Surface Charging 3) Intrinsic Satellites caused by atomic relaxation  (1) excitation of electron to bound state (shake-up satellite) (2) excitation of electron to continuum state (shake-off satellite) (3) excitation of hole (shake-down satellite) 4) Multiplet Splitting splitting of 1s orbital 5) Extrinsic Satellites caused by energy loss in electrons as it travels towards the surface (i.e., plasmon)

Secondary XPS Structure 2) Surface Charging caused by accumulation of positive charges due to photoemission of electrons  results in peak shift to higher B.E. Neutralized using a flux of low energy electron

Sampling Depth for XPS Sampling depth ~ 3 l

XPS Data Analysis Quantitative information requires good background subtraction method must identify and correct for: - x-ray satellites - chemically shifted species - shake-up peaks - plasmon and other electron energy losses

XPS Applications in Catalysis (1) Analyses of surface composition provides quantitative information on surface elemental composition

XPS Applications in Catalysis (2) Oxidation state provides information on the oxidation state of the catalyst materials Vanadium catalyst Tungsten oxide catalyst

XPS Applications in Catalysis (3) Analyses of surface chemistry provides quantitative information on chemical states of catalyst surface

XPS Applications in Catalysis (4) Surface electronic state provides information on the electronic properties of catalyst

XPS Applications in Catalysis (4) Surface electronic state provides information on the electronic band-gap structure of the catalyst material.

Photoemission Electron Microscopy (PEEM)

PEEM - Topological Contrast Photoelectron emission if the energy of the X-ray photons is larger than the work function of the sample. These photo-emitted electrons are extracted into an electronoptical imaging onto a phosphor screen that convertes electrons into visible light, which is detected by a CCD camera. The topographical contrast is due to distortion of the electric field around surface topolographical features.

PEEM - Elemental Contrast Elemental contrast is achieved by tuning the incident x-ray wavelength through absorption edges of elements.

PEEM - Elemental Contrast X-ray absorption contains information on local chemical environment.

Auger Electron Spectroscopy Auger electrons are generated during the relaxation of excited atom Yield of Auger electron is higher for light elements

Auger Electron Spectroscopy Auger electrons can be generated by: (1) X-rays Auger peaks in XPS (2) Electrons free of photoemission peaks Auger electron K.E. = EA - EB - EC - 

Auger Electron Spectroscopy Point analysis (50-200 nm) Line scan Elemental mapping Depth profiling

AES - Point Analysis Fingerprint Spectra Use characteristic spectra for identifying unknown samples - chemical shift is complex - broad peak - presence of loss features - difficult to assign - more difficult to interpret than XPS

AES - Line Analysis Line Scan AES has good spatial resolution - monitors auger peak intensity as a function of position Line scan across a cratered sample

AES - Elemental Mapping Using electron excitation source that could be scanned AES has could provide elemental mapping

AES - Depth Profiling Depth Profiling Analysis procedure: (1) surface etching is attained by bombardment with Ar ion (2) AES is obtained from the crater formed by Ar sputtering (3) the process is repeated to create an Precise etching can be achieved: for example, Si 9.0 nm/min SiO2 8.5 nm/min Pt 22 nm/min Au 41 nm/min Al 9.5 nm/min Cr 14 nm/min
