Acquisition of an X-Ray Photoelectron Spectrometer

来自学术研究基础设施计划的这一奖项将帮助俄勒冈州大学化学系获得X射线光电光谱仪（LXPS）。 支持的研究活动包括：分子自组装，聚合物改性和/或降解，半导体光腐蚀，化学传感，非线性光学器件的制造，以及新的固态纳米结构和材料的制备和表征。 X射线光电子（XPS）光谱仪用于化学分析。 它用一束单色X射线照射样品，测量产生的光电子的能量，并将其与特定元素相关联

This award from the Academic Research Infrastructure Program will help the Department of Chemistry at the University of Oregon acquire an X-ray photoelectric spectrometer (LXPS). The research activity to be supported includes: the areas of molecular self-assembly, polymer modification and/or degradation, semiconductor photocorrosion, chemical sensing, fabrication of non-linear optical devices, and the preparation and characterization of new solid state nanostructures and materials. 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
