High-resolution XPS spectrometer for tribochemical characterization of boundary lubricating films and surfaces with micrometer-precise positioning and analysis
X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS) is a surface-sensitive technique that provides detailed information about the elemental composition and chemical state of the surface atoms. It is useful for identifying oxidation, corrosion, and tribochemical reactions that occur on the surface during the sliding process. It is also important for analyzing the chemical nature of the tribofilms (in-situ developed films) that formed during the sliding process. In short, it is a crucial tool to develop novel anti-wear and anti-friction surfaces and better lubrication strategies.
