Extremely well-resolved Si 2p core-level spectra have been obtained and the split of ∼0.55 eV between the two dimer-atom components points to a substantial charge transfer within the dimers.Abstract:
Extremely well-resolved Si 2p core-level spectra have been obtained from the clean Si(001) surface. Spectra from the cold c(4×2) and the RT 2×1 surfaces are very similar, implying that the local structure of the two reconstructions is the same. Shifted components originating from both up and down atoms of asymmetric dimers, as well as second-layer atoms, are identified. The split of ∼0.55 eV between the two dimer-atom components points to a substantial charge transfer within the dimers. We find no support for the recently proposed crystal-field splitting of the surface componentsread more

Auger parameter and Wagner plot in the characterization of chemical states by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy: a review
TL;DR: In this article, a review of the Auger parameter concept and its relation to the final state relaxation energy is presented, and a simple semiquantitative model useful to rationalize the dependence of the local electronic structure on the atomic environment is presented.

TL;DR: It is shown that, close to the Fermi level, graphene exhibits a robust, almost perfect, gapless, and n-doped Dirac cone and no significant charge transfer doping is detected from MoS2 to graphene, however, modification of the graphene band structure occurs at rather larger binding energies, as the opening of several miniband-gaps is observed.

Physical properties and chemical reactivity of the buckled dimer on Si(1 0 0)
TL;DR: In this paper, the chemical reactivity of the buckled dimer on Si(1.0.0) is reviewed from the viewpoint of physical properties of the substrate and the molecules, which have been obtained by several experimental techniques including valence and core-level photoelectron spectroscopy, high-resolution electron energy loss spectrum, scanning tunneling microscopy as well as theoretical calculations.
