ESCA Applications Index

 

This still represents the beginning of an index to the considerable volume of AXIS and Amicus data that exist as Applications Notes, Scientific Papers and other publications. Much of this is slowly being added to this site - bear with us until your particular interest is covered!

If the application which interests you hasn't yet been mounted on this site,
contact Dave Surman (from the USA) or Chris Blomfield (from Europe) for a copy on paper.

 

Many of the notes contain lots of graphical detail or spectra and are quite long, with high memory requirements.
Some are reproduced in abbreviated form, for the convenience of those with relatively slow network connections,
but bear in mind that in this section your patience with relatively long load times may be tested!
(You may thus want to collect paper copies anyway!)

Applications Notes "Monochromatic XPS - some examples of the use of the new large backplane system" AXIS 165 "Polymer Handbook" "Determination of the structure of HMDSO/O2 plasma deposits using high resolution XPS" (AXIS 165) "The use of X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) valence band spectra for the determination of polymer tacticity." (AXIS 165) "The interfacial chemistry of Adhesion: Segregation phenomena of minor components of a model adhesive formulation." (AXIS 165) "XPS Analysis of Polymer Blends."
