Adams and Clark78 used a large basis set of better than DZ quality and calculated core binding energies and shifts for several fluoro- and chloro-methanes, including CF4. These were obtained using Koopmans theorem, hole state calculations, and equivalent cores calculations,79 the latter giving the best results for minimal basis sets, but there was little difference between the three methods for the more extended basis sets. NF4+ was also studied in this paper. 

Figure 5.7. Schematic diagram for the variation of potential energy as a function of distance from a metal surface for dissociative adsorption of a molecule X2. 6p is the heat of physical adsorption for the molecule, Qc is the heat of chemisorption, and Qp is the heat of dissociation of the free molecule. The binding energy per chemisorbed atom is Qn + Qc)l2, Note that for Qc sufficiently small, chemisorption no longer occurs. [T. N. Rhodin and D. L. Adams, Treatise on Solid State Chemistry, N. B.
