Abstract:Electron energy loss spectra have been investigated for Sc, Ti, V and their oxidized surfaces. The position and shape of the measured peaks associated with the 3p electron excitation are found to be consistent with 3p63da4sm-3p53dn+14sm transitions calculated for isolated Sc, Ti and V ions.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
