Three new sulphur-passivation techniques of GaAs surfaces are presented to solve the problem of longevity and durability. To explore the passivation mechanism, XPS in conjunction With other techniques are employed to study the chemical compositions of Ga and As atoms near the passivation filmlsubstr

β¦ Synopsis
X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) has been used to study the nature and content of sulphur contained in coal samples from Assam. In each case two sulphur 2p (S 2p) peaks were observed. The 169-I 71 eV 2p peak corresponds to sulphate, whilst the 164-I 65 eV peak is assigned to S in iron sulphide compounds such as pyrite, marcasite, etc. and also organic sulphur. The complete absence of a 169-I 71 eV S peak from a coal sample from which both pyritic and sulphate sulphur were removed by hydrodesulphurization strongly indicates that the remaining 164.7 eV S 2p peak corresponds to the total organic sulphur present in the coal.

## Abstract Xβray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) was used to study the hydrolytic aging of polypropylene according to the pHs of degrading buffer solutions and the time of aging. The study was concentrated over periods of 3, 6, and 9 months for values of pH close to the real environments of use o
This paper describes the characterization by x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) of several Ge-doped silica glasses before and after reactive ion etching (ME) in sulphur hexafluoride (SF,). These glasses have been commonly used in the production of optical waveguides, with varying amounts of GeO,
