K, L, M,. ..), 5 is the energy shift caused by relaxation efiects and cp is the work fimction of tlie spectrometer. The 5 tenn accounts for the relaxation effect involved in the decay process, which leads to a final state consisting of a heavily excited, doubly ionized atom. 

There are two further effects on K emission XRF which become more important with decreasing nuclear charge. One is the appearance of weak satellite transitions, to lower wavelengths of the main transitions, occurring in the small proportion of doubly ionized atoms which may be produced by the initial X-ray bombardment. The other is a tendency for some transitions to be broadened into bands, rather than the usual sharp lines, due to the... 

The second and third energy terms in equation (1) could be interchanged without any effect (i.e. it is impossible to say which electron fills the initial core hole and which is ejected as an Auger electron they are indistinguishable. The existence of different electronic states within the final doubly ionized atom may furthermore lead to fine structure in high-resolution spectra. 

The SE term accounts for the relaxation effects involved in the decay process, which leads to a final state consisting of a heavily excited, doubly ionized atom.

In AES, core-hole excitations are created when a beam of electrons, typically with energies between 1 to 10 KeV, is impinged onto the surface. In the decay process, one upper-level electron falls into the vacant core level and a second electron, the Auger electron, is ejected. Since the kinetic energy of the emitted Auger electron is characteristic of the (doubly-ionized) atom, AES is a sensitive technique that provides information on the elemental composition (except H and He) of the interfacial region. Analytical procedures that enable the use of AES as a quantitative technique have been suggested. " ... 

The probabilities of finding neutral, singly, doubly, etc, ionized atoms at time t are readily expressed in terms of the norms (383). For instance, in the case of helium, one has... 

Knowledge of the functional role of zinc as a component of metalloen-zymes is much less complete. Zinc differs from iron in several aspects. The known zinc enzymes are colorless, and the doubly ionized atom, having no unpaired electrons, has no paramagnetic moment. The metal has but one stable oxidation state in solution, is tightly bound to the apoenzyme, and can be removed only with severe chemical treatment. In no instance, so far, has the group binding the metal to enzyme been established with certainty. 

In addition, whenever the Auger process occurs in a doubly ionized atom, satellite peaks resulting either from shake-off in the primary ionization or from Coster-Kronig transitions from 1 vacancies ) canbe observed .

The Bohr approach works well for hydrogen-like atoms, atoms with one electron hydrogen, singly-ionized helium, doubly-ionized lithium, etc. However, it showed many deficiencies for other atoms, which is to say, almost all atoms of interest other than hydrogen. The problems with the Bohr atom for these cases were described below. 

To appreciate the similarities between an extrinsic semiconductor and a nonstoichiometric oxide, compare Fig. 7.13a with Fig. 6.4a or b. In both cases the electron(s) is(are) loosely bound to its(their) mooring(s) and is(are) easily excited into the conduction band. The corresponding energy diagrams for the singly ionized and doubly ionized oxygen vacancies are shown in Fig. 7.12c. In essence, a nonstoichiometric semiconductor is one where the electrons and holes excited in the conduction and valence bands are a result of reduction or oxidation. For example, the reduction of an oxide entails the removal of oxygen atoms, which have to leave their electrons behind to maintain electroneutrality. These electrons, in turn, are responsible for conduction.

Following the traditional spectroscopic notation, columns are headed 1,11, 111, etc. up to XXX, where 1 indicates the neutral atom, 11 the singly ionized atom. 111 the doubly ionized atom, etc. The first section of the table includes spectra 1 to Vlll of all the elements through rutherfordium subsequent sections cover higher spectra (ionization stages) for those elements for which data are available. 

Mass-spectrographic comparisons with C or are made in the following way. An ion source that produces ions both of carbon or oxyge n and of the element to be investigated is used the lines of carbon or oxygen and of the element in such states of ionization that their M/z values are nearly the same are then obtained thus for -S, 8, and the lines for the doubly ionized atoms would lie near the line for singly ionized oxygen. Accurate relative measurements of these lines can then be made.
