Comment on 'Quantitative x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy: Quadrupole effects, shake up, Shirley background, and relative sensitivity factors from a database of true x-ray photoelectron spectra'

摘要

This Comment demonstrates that a comparison analysis by Seah and Gilmorebetween experimental data on the X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy intensitiesand theoretical data by Trzhaskovskaya et al. is misleading due to a number ofserious errors made by Seah and Gilmore (Phys. Rev. B, 73, 174113).
