20、scopy (XPS) are surface-analytical techniques that are sensitive to the composition in the surface region of a material to depths of, typically, a few nanometres (nm). Both techniques yield a surface-weighted signal, averaged over the analysis volume. Most samples have compositional variations, both

21、 laterally and with depth, and quantification is often performed with approximate methods since it can be difficult to determine the magnitude of any compositional variations and the distance scale over which they might occur. The simplest sample for analysis is one that is homogeneous. Although thi

22、s situation occurs infrequently, it is often assumed, for simplicity in the analysis, that the sample material of interest is homogeneous. This International Standard provides guidance on the measurement and use of experimentally determined relative sensitivity factors for the quantitative analysis

42、y factor for element iRSF Relative sensitivity factorXPS X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy5 General informationIt is convenient in many quantitative applications of AES and XPS to utilize relative sensitivity factors (RSFs) for quantitative analyses. Three types of RSF have been used for this purpose

43、: elemental relative sensitivity factors (ERSFs), atomic relative sensitivity factors (ARSFs), and average matrix relative sensitivity factors (AMRSFs). Formulae defining these three types of RSF are given in A.3 and the principles on which these formulae are based on are given in A.2.While the ERSF

44、s are the simplest and easiest to apply, they are the least accurate because no account is taken of matrix correction factors (as described in A.3). The matrix correction factors for AES can vary between 0,1 and 81while they can vary between 0,3 and 32for XPS. The ARSFs are more accurate than ERSFs

45、in that they take account of differences in atomic densities, generally the largest single matrix correction. The AMRSFs are the most reliable RSFs in that there is almost complete correction of matrix effects. It is recommended that ERSFs be used only for semi-quantitative analyses (that is, rough

46、estimates of composition) and that ARSFs or preferably, AMRSFs be used for quantitative analyses. For the latter applications, ARSFs shall be used only in situations for which it is not possible to make use of AMRSFs (for example, measurements involving Auger electrons or photoelectrons at energies

47、for which inelastic mean free paths cannot be reliably determined).In analytical applications of AES and XPS, it is essential that Auger-electron and photoelectron intensities be measured using exactly the same procedure as that used for measurement of the RSFs. For some applications of AES (e.g. sp

48、utter depth profiles), it is convenient to use peak-to-peak heights of Auger-electron signals in the differential mode as measures of Auger-electron intensities. For other applications of AES (e.g. scanning Auger microscopy), the Auger-electron intensity can be determined from the difference between

49、 the intensity at a peak maximum in the direct spectrum and the intensity of a nearby background signal. Finally, for many applications in XPS and for some applications of AES, areas of peaks in direct spectra are used as measures of photoelectron or Auger-electron intensities.Relative sensitivity factors depend on the parameters of the excitation source (for example, the incident electron energy in AES and the choice of X-ray energy in XPS), the spectrometer configuration (for example, the angle of incidence of the electr
