27 Summary Soft x-ray and electron spectroscopies allow the investigation of surfaces and interfaces in a unique way: Atom-specific and chemically sensitive Chemical properties (intermixing, impurities,...) Electronic structure (gaps, offsets,...) Can help in optimizing manufacturing processes and industrial products Particularly suited for thin film PV materials, and especially CIGSSe! heske@kit.edu, heske@unlv.nevada.edu
