Resolving surface chemical states in XPS analysis of first row transition metals, oxides and hydroxides: Sc, Ti, V, Cu and Zn
TLDR
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.About:

Cobalt-iron (oxy)hydroxide oxygen evolution electrocatalysts: the role of structure and composition on activity, stability, and mechanism.
TL;DR: It is hypothesized that Fe is the most-active site in the catalyst, while CoOOH primarily provides a conductive, high-surface area, chemically stabilizing host.

Zn/MnO2 Battery Chemistry With H+ and Zn2+ Coinsertion
Wei Sun,Fei Wang,Singyuk Hou,Chongyin Yang,Xiulin Fan,Zhaohui Ma,Tao Gao,Fudong Han,Renzong Hu,Min Zhu,Chunsheng Wang +10 more
TL;DR: Electrochemical and structural analysis identify that the MnO2 cathode experience a consequent H+ and Zn2+ insertion/extraction process with high reversibility and cycling stability, which is the first report on rechargeable aqueous batteries with a consequents ion-insertion reaction mechanism.

Investigation of multiplet splitting of Fe 2p XPS spectra and bonding in iron compounds
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the usefulness of calculated multiplet peaks to fit high-resolution iron 2p3/2 spectra from high-spin compounds. And they found that the multiplets were found to fit most spectra well, particularly when contributions attributed to surface peaks and shake-up satellites were included.

New interpretations of XPS spectra of nickel metal and oxides
Andrew P. Grosvenor,Mark C. Biesinger,Roger St. C. Smart,Roger St. C. Smart,N. Stewart McIntyre +4 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a scheme for fitting the Ni 2p spectra using multiplet envelopes is proposed, based on charge transfer assignments of the main peak at 854.6 eV and the broad satellite centred at around 861 eV to the cd 9 L and the unscreened cd 8 final state configurations, respectively.
