How could I take into consideration the weights of observation in a system of seemingly unrelated regressions (SUR) in rstudio?

I build a model of 4 regression equations (probit and OLS) in R studio. I need to take the weights of observations into consideration. While it is simple to do so for every regression equation,...

How can we measure the surface relative content of deconvoluted Mn 2p3/2 XPS spectra?

Somewhere in papers, it is written as Mn 2p3/2 XPS spectra can be deconvoluted into four peaks at 640.83, 641.92, 642.97 and 644.56 eV assigned to Mn(II), Mn(III), Mn(IV), and the shakeup peak,...

Regarding the O 1s XPS pf phyllosilciates, the peak near 531 belongs to Oxygen vacancy sites or O bonded to the Si from the silicate tetrahedra?

In O 1s spectra, usually the peak near 531 eV belongs to oxygen vacancy sites in oxides, however, in silicates, these peaks are often reported to originate from O-Si. I am confused if the intense...

In XPS analysis of GO films. How I can use the sample work function method to know the information of XPS binding energy scale is referenced ?

Note that aligning the spectra to the C 1s peak of adventitious carbon is a highly risky procedure and was recently shown to lead to unphysical results. Therefore, I strongly suggest to avoid it....

Some ideas about contamination from Ca 2p always appearing and, therefore, overlaping with Pd3d in a SPECS spectrometer?

Dear colleagues, In our XPS instrument, most of the time when we acquire the Pd3d region (for a wide range of materials containing Pd) it overlaps with a strong signal from Ca2p. Nonetheless,...

Can we co-relate that A-site vacancies are one of the main reasons for (110)-texture formation? But how?

A-site deficient 0.1BiScO3-BaTiO3 (BSBT) thin films were deposited on Pt/TiO2/SiO2/Si substrate by using PLD. XPS results revealed that A-site vacancies increase with the increase of deposition...
