Peak 5: Peak 1 + 9.56, FWHM 1.88 eV, Area = Peak 2 * 0.02361įitting parameters for CoP from references and. Note: Be forewarned that this has caused some confusion in the literature.įitting parameters for CoCr2O4 used in reference are as follows:

This appears to be a common problem with two published databases showing similar Co3O4 oxidized surfaces for CoO. Initial analysis of a commercial CoO sample showed the surface to be extensively oxidized to Co3O4 even though the bulk powder XRD spectrum showed only CoO. Obtaining a pure CoO specimen for analysis is problematic.

Co 2p3/2 spectral fitting parameters: binding energy (eV), percentage of total area, FWHM value (eV) for each pass energy, and spectral component separation (eV).
