X-Ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS) enables chemists to                      obtain fundamental information related to surfaces.  Areas as                   diverse as electrochemistry, heterogeneous catalysis, and                       surface science can be enhanced by access to modern XPS                         instrumentation.                                                                                                                                                The Department of Chemistry of Texas A&M University will use                    this award from the Chemistry Shared Instrumentation Program to                 help acquire an X-ray photoelectron spectrometer.  Among the                    areas of chemistry that will be enhanced by the acquisition are                 the following:                                                                                                                                                  1) Use of ESCA in electrochemical studies                                       2) Bimetallic complexes bridged by difunctional ligands and                        trinuclear complexes                                                         3) The role of surface oxygen ions in the catalytic activation                     of methane                                                                   4) Surface coordination/organometallic chemistry of Noble-metal                    electrocatalysis.
