Abstract
A number of books, symposia, proceedings, special publications [1–9], and review papers in English covering catalytic surfaces [10, 11], solid surface characterization [12–191, thin film analysis [20–22], surface structure and bonding [23, 24], angular distribution of photoelectrons [25, 26], use of synchrotron radiation [27, 281, ion beam effects [29], different methods of surface study [30, 31], experimental and theoretical aspects of ultraviolet photoelectron spectroscopy (UPS) [32], and angle resolved UPS [33, 34] are available in literature. Reviews in other languages, namely Japanese [35–41], German [42–46], French [47–50], Italian [51], Russian [52], and Polish [53], are also available. But the present situation demands a thorough and up-to-date literature survey of the surface study by photoelectron spectroscopy in order to assess what has been done and what is left to be done. This paper is aimed at that goal.
