摘要
Results from X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS) of molybdenum oxide samples are presented to elucidate how Mo (VI) oxide evolves to Mo (IV) oxide upon heating of a MoO3 sample. XPS data analysis techniques based on manipulation of spectra treated as vectors are shown and allow insights into intermediate phases of Mo oxide which suggest how the original oxide changes under the influence of heat but also supports an interpretation of as-received tetravalent Mo powders as multivalent materials. In particular, several new spectral components were observed and assigned to the Magne ' li phase as well as MoO3 domains that have been modified by the presence of X-rays or temperature. These assignments comprise a new method of data processing where sample modification is used to inform XPS data interpretation and differ from previous work where the linear relationship of the binding energy of molybdenum oxides has been used.
