Abstract
Chemical states of cesium as well as the other alkali metals (sodium and rubidium) sorbed in micaceous oxides have been investigated by total reflection X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (TR-XPS). For cesium, it was shown that ultra-trace amount of cesium down to about 100 pg/cm$^{-2}$ can be detected by TR-XPS. This amount corresponds to about 200 Bq of $^{137}$Cs (t$_{1/2}$ = 30.2y). It was demonstrated that ultra-trace amount of cesium corresponding to radioactive cesium level can be measured by TR-XPS. As to the chemical states, it was found that core-level binding energy in TR-XPS for trace-level cesium shifted to lower-energy side compared with that for thicker layer. A reverse tendency is observed in sodium. Based on charge transfer within a simple point-charge model, it is concluded that chemical bond between alkali metal and micaceous oxide for ultra-thin layer is more polarized that for thick layer.
