A theoretical study of X-ray photoemission spectra (XPS) of some noble metal alloys: Au/Pt, Ag/Au, Ag/Pt and Au/Ni

  • Published:
Zeitschrift für Physik B Condensed Matter

Abstract

Al−K α XPS intensities are calculated for Au x Pt1−x , Ag x Au1−x , Ag x Pt1−x and Au x Ni1−x using partial local densities of states as obtained from the fully relativistic KKR-CPA (GF) method and fully relativistic partial cross sections. It is found that the calculated spectra agree rather well with available angle integrated photoemission data.
