TL;DR: In this article, the binding energy shifts of aliphatic saturated compounds, carbonyl compounds, and some aromatic compounds were measured by ESCA and compared with results of semi-empirical and ab initio molecular orbital calculations on free molecules.

TL;DR: In this article, the binding energies of calibration lines suitable for solid and for gaseous samples have been determined for different X-radiation, sample thickness and material, and experiments indicated that in calibrating relative to a surface layer, the carbon line from the hydrocarbon contamination layer can be used as well as a line from a thick layer of a noble metal on a part of the sample.

TL;DR: The position and shape of the energy bands of the following transition metals have been studied by ESCA: Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Ru, Rh, Pd, Ag, Os, Ir, Pt, Au as mentioned in this paper.

TL;DR: The escape depth of X-ray induced photoelectrons and Auger electrons has been measured for energies between 1 keV and 4 keV in metallic gold and aluminum oxide as mentioned in this paper, and the escape depth was found to be proportional to the square root of the electron energy.
