ISO 10810 is applicable to X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. It provides guidelines for analysing surface chemicals.
ISO 10810 is intended to aid the operators of X-ray photoelectron spectrometers in their analysis of typical samples. It takes the operator through the analysis from the handling of the sample and the calibration and setting-up of the spectrometer to the acquisition of wide and narrow scans and also gives advice on quantification and on the preparation of the final report.
ISO 10810 on X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy is useful for:
X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) is used extensively for the surface (1 nm to 10 nm) analysis of materials.
ISO 10810 provides you with the guidance that will help you to identify, compare and measure XPS binding energies of their core levels with tabulations of those energies for the different elements. ISO 10810 helps you to determine chemical states from shifts in peak positions and other parameters compared with the data for that element in its pure elemental state.
Information on the quantities of such elements can be derived from the measured intensities of photoelectron peaks. ISO 10810 sets out the calculation of the quantities of the constituent chemical species present in the surface layer studied (outer 1 nm to 10 nm) using formulae.
Overall, ISO 10810 guides you with X-ray photoelectron spectrometers analysis of the surfaces (outer 1 nm to 10 nm) of typical samples.
