Abstract

The oxygen, O1s core level, is diagnostic in the study of metal oxides, revealing the formation of hydroxides, carbonates and other oxygen-containing species in X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). This insight paper gives an overview of the complexities that may be overlooked in the analysis of oxygen core-level spectra and aims to give practitioners of the technique a reasoned approach to the assignment of oxygen speciation.
