“…3d), the peaks at 227.9, 231.55, and 234.94 eV are characteristic of Mo 3d 5/2 and Mo 3d 3/2 , respectively, indicating that Mo exists in the form of Mo 4+ and Mo 6+ . 48–50 The high-resolution P 2p spectrum in Fig. 3e reveals that there is a pair of peaks located at 128.74 and 129.36 eV, which are ascribed to the P 2p 3/2 and P 2p 1/2 states, respectively, indicative of the formation of metal phosphides.…”
