Abstract

The dependence of the escape probability of the photoelectrons from solids on the elastic mean free path, single scattering albedo, escape angle and asymmetry parameter, is calculated taking into account the photoelectron elastic scattering. The processes which lead to differences between the calculated values and the straight line approximation, and the connection of the escape probability with attenuation length and XPS-intensities are discussed. The escape probability can have a maximum at other than the very surface in some cases.
