Energy Analyzers
Measure K.E.XPS – resolve electrons based on KE Cylindrical Mirror Analyzers (CMA)
No detection – only separation
High energy resolution & transmission
Concentric Hemispherical Analyzer (CHA)
• Double focusing
• Take-off angle (47.7 deg)
• Higher transmission
Double-pass CMA
Energy Analyzers
Concentric Hemispherical Analyzer (CHA)
Hemispherical sector analyzer
Spherical deflection analyzer
Electrostatic hemispherical analyzer
Larger areas
Lower transmission than CMA due to smaller
collection angle
Mode of operation
Fixed retard ratio (FRR) the potentials are scanned to allow different E0
Constant Analyzer Energy (CAE) or Fixed Analyzer Transmission (FAT) differently accelerated – transfer lens
Pass energy
Good quality instrument with monochromatic source and CAE/FAT mode (5-10 eV) analyzer – 0.3 -0.5 eV

Data Collection
Low resolution spectra (survey scan)
0-1000 eV – poor energy resolution (>40 eV pass energy,
0.5 eV steps)
Selected regions – High resolution spectra-
longer recording times
Error sources
Angle resolved XPS (AR-XPS) & Energy resolved XPS <10 microns
Parallel imaging
Depth Profiling
Parallel imaging
Energy-resolved XPS
Sputtering damage/errors
Preferential sputtering
Recoil implantation
Cascade mixing
