UNIQUE SELF-CONSISTENT COLLECTION OF >70,000 MONOCHROMATIC XPS SPECTRA
All spectra were collected by the same XPS scientist, B. Vincent Crist using same data collection protocols, same calibration schemes, and same sample preparation methods. Because all spectra were collected by the same XPS scientist, the entire collection of monochromatic XPS spectra (>80,000) are a unique “self-consistent” collection of reliable spectra.
Data-File Formats of all XPS Spectra
