Abstract

Monochromadzed Al-Kα XPS spectra from iso- and syndiotacdc polystyrenes are analyzed with the help of theoretical band structures and densities of states produced from a valence effective Hamiltonian (VEH) computation scheme. A discussion of the correlations found between the experimental and theoretical results points out to the potentialities but also to the limits of both methods.
