This award from the Chemistry Research Instrumentation and Facilities (CRIF) Program and the Major Research Instrumentation (MRI) Program will assist the Department of Chemistry at Colorado State University acquire XPS instrumentation for a departmental materials characterization facility. This equipment will enhance research in a number of areas including the following: (1) vapor deposition processes for synthesis and modification of electronic, novel polymeric, and nanostructured materials; (2) solid state and materials chemistry with an emphasis on zintl ion chemistry and heavy element environmental chemistry; (3) polymer and organic ultrathin films; (4) chemical vapor deposition of electronic materials; (5) materials and surface chemistry as applied to organic semiconductor interfaces, preparation of organic light emitting diodes, and dye sensitization of wide gap inorganic semiconductors; and (6) thin film chemical vapor deposition. The X-ray photoelectron (XPS) spectrometer is used for chemical analysis. It irradiates a sample with a beam of monochromatic X-rays and the energies of the resulting photoelectrons are measured and are related to specific elements.

化学研究工具和设施（CRIF）计划和主要研究仪器（MRI）计划的奖项将协助科罗拉多州立大学化学系获得XPS仪器的部门材料表征设施。该设备将增强许多领域的研究，包括以下各个方面：（1）用于合成和修饰电子，新型聚合物和纳米结构材料的蒸气沉积过程； （2）固态和材料化学，重点是Zintl离子化学和重元素环境化学； （3）聚合物和有机超薄膜； （4）电子材料的化学蒸气沉积； （5）应用于有机半导体界面的材料和表面化学，发射二极管的制备以及宽间隙无机半导体的染料敏化； （6）薄膜化学蒸气沉积。 X射线光电子（XPS）光谱仪用于化学分析。它用单色X射线束辐照样品，并测量所得光电子的能量，并与特定元素有关。
