Abstract

We show that ionization spectroscopy, in contrast to Auger electron spectroscopy. makes it possible to distinguish chemical states of every element in a composite oxide on the surface of a metal alloy. The interaction of spectroscopically pure oxygen with the surfaces of 20Khl3 and 08Khl8G12N5AB steels, polycrystalline iron, nickel, chromium, and manganese at room temperature is investigated. For a dose of oxygen of 10 mPa sec in the presence of oxidized iron and manganese, the atoms of chromium in a near-surface layer 1.5 nm thick do not show any signs of oxidation.
