Scope

Include the experimental conditions under which spectra are taken in the “Experiment” section of all reports and publications.

Identify any parameters that are changed between different spectra in the “Experiment” section of publications and reports, and include the specific parameters applicable to each spectrum in the figure caption.

1.1 Auger and x-ray photoelectron spectra are obtained using a variety of excitation methods, analyzers, signal processing, and digitizing techniques.

1.2 This practice lists the desirable information that shall be reported to fully describe the experimental conditions, specimen conditions, data recording procedures, and data transformation processes.

1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
