What does C1s mean in XPS? Interpretation of XPS Spectra Adventitious carbon contamination is commonly used as a charge reference for XPS spectra. C1s spectrum for contamination typically has C-C, C-O-C and O-C=O. components. The C-C component may be set to a binding energy of 284.8eV, by default. What are XPS used for? X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), also known as electron spectroscopy for chemical analysis (ESCA), is a technique for analyzing a material's surface chemistry. XPS can measure elemental composition as well as the chemical and electronic state of the atoms within a material. What is binding energy XPS? Atoms...
