As the acronym suggests XPS (X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy) is a spectroscopic technique. An XPS spectrum is displayed as the number of photoelectrons collected by the detector as a function of ...

The copper target was operated at voltages of 11 kV, 12 kV, 13 kV, and 14 kV for the electron source, and a 50 kV configuration using a molybdenum target was used as a representative example for the ...

Random fluctuations in the intensity and energy of X-ray lasers, which generally limit performance, have been harnessed for high-resolution spectroscopy. Li and colleagues use an XFEL to produce a ...

EDS is prone to insufficient energy resolution to differentiate energy lines near each other. For example, Si K, W M, and Ta M lines have only 30 eV energy differences. When these elements occur in ...

A resolution the Reno City Council approved last week on NV Energy's planned $28 increase to its basic service charge removed all references from an earlier version to the council opposing the ...

The Undergraduate Students Association Council passed a resolution Dec. 5 endorsing a commitment to 100% clean energy usage in UCLA by 2035. The resolution, which passed unanimously with one ...

Pueblo City Council voted 5-2 on Jan. 13 to replace the Pueblo Energy Advisory Commission — which was founded in 2021 to assist with the city's now rescinded 2017 resolution to be 100% powered by ...

What is Electron Energy Loss Spectroscopy? Electron energy loss spectroscopy (EELS) is a powerful analytical technique used to study the chemical composition, electronic structure, and local bonding ...

On the Reno City Council's Thursday agenda was a resolution to oppose NV Energy's proposed increase of the basic service charge from $16.50 to $45.30 — the highest such charge in the nation. Instead, ...

Shell chief executive Wael Sawan has described a resolution asking the supermajor to more closely align its business strategy to the Paris Agreement on climate change as “destructive” and “simplistic” ...

Reliance on fossil fuels over cheaper renewables is a key driver of potential energy cost hikes. Political policies and utility company decisions in Kentucky are hindering the adoption of renewable ...
