Can the presence of the pi-pi* transition component in C1s XPS spectrum, be somewhat related with the better photocatalysis of carbon doped/ functionalized metal oxide nanotube?
Presence of the pi-pi* transition in C1s XPS spectrum??
In the case of graphite (HOPG), in C 1s spectrum is present a peak of energy loss,
localized at about 6.0 eV from the main peak and due to the π-π∗
transition.More info you can find in our paper:
