“…However, the problem of the proper determination of the function of the electron yield T(z) (see, for example, Liljequist et al, 1978;Kovalchuk et al, 1986) imposes some limitations on the wide application of the TEY method. The fluorescence yield measurements have shown more advantages in the X-ray standing-wave method mostly due to its element sensitivity and also due to a much simpler form of the yield function T(z) [see reviews by Vartanyants & Koval'chuk (2001) and von Bohlen (2009), and also recent papers (Lee et al, 2006;Bera et al, 2007;Gupta et al, 2007;Novikova et al, 2009;Andreeva et al, 2009)].…”
