X-ray photon spectroscopy (XPS) analysis was performed on stored Cu-Au catalysts prepared by direct redox reaction with no subsequent reduction by hydrogen. After contacting the reduced copper catalyst with the Au salt, Au is in the metallic state [7]. 

In Chapter 6, Frost and Kloprogge, describe the use of various heating-stages coupled with infrared, Raman, energy dispersive X-ray, or X-ray photon spectroscopy. Such techniques strongly complement the results obtained from traditional thermoanalytical techniques and enable the changes in the composition and molecular structure of minerals and materials to be obtained in situ at elevated temperatures. 

X-ray photon spectroscopy (XPS) was also known as electron spectroscopy for chemical analysis (ESCA). Both names are descriptive, as the essential feature of the technique is bombardment of a specimen with monochromatic x-ray photons, and the energy spectmm of electrons... 

It has been found that the most powerful technique for probing the chemical nature of the electrochemical interface in a Li-ion battery context is X-ray Photon Spectroscopy (XPS) surface XRD or Raman spectroscopy are considerably less versatile in this respect. Although a number of XPS studies have been performed on different Mn-oxides, there is a noticeable lack of XPS surface investigations for the LiMnp system. For this reason, we shall focus particularly on results from XPS studies in this discussion. Examples of typical XPS spectral bands are given in Figure 1. 

The past decade has seen the emergence of analytical imaging, which is imaging using the signals from various analytical instruments, such as FTIR and Raman microscopy, x-ray microscopy, and imaging by surface analysis using secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS) and x-ray photon spectroscopy (XPS).
