••
TL;DR: Biesinger et al. as mentioned in this paper proposed a more consistent and effective approach to curve fitting based on a combination of standard spectra from quality reference samples, a survey of appropriate literature databases and/or a compilation of literature references and specific literature references where fitting procedures are available.

••
TL;DR: In this paper, the peak positions and peak shape parameters of Fe 3p for Fe2+ and Fe3+ were derived from the XPS spectra of the standard samples of 2FeO·SiO2 and Fe2O3, respectively.

••
TL;DR: In this paper, the fundamental mechanism of heterogeneous photocatalysis, advantages, challenges and the design considerations of g-C3N4-based photocatalysts are summarized, including their crystal structural, surface phisicochemical, stability, optical, adsorption, electrochemical, photoelectrochemical and electronic properties.

TL;DR: In this article, the chemical state of oxygen, aluminum and zinc in Al-doped ZnO (ZAO) films was investigated by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), as well as the transition zone of the film-to-substrate, by auger electron spectrography (AES), showing that zinc remains mostly in the formal valence states of Zn2+.
