Interfacial analysis of tribological systems containing molybdenum disulfide and iron using XPS and CEMSIn the present evaluation of results from studies of the interfacial chemistry and morphology of a buried lubricant-substrate interface, specimens of increasing complexity that culminated with the effects of excess sulfur and defects were characterized by XPS and SEM, as well as conversion-electron Moessbauer spectroscopy (CEMS). In order to simulate sputtered systems, single crystals of MoS2 were damaged with Ar(+) bombardment and coated with Fe. Fe is found to react differently with MoS2 depending on surface treatments, surface defects, annealing treatments, and the presence of excess sulfur. The annealing temperature determines which compounds are formed, as well as the crystal habit and plane at the Fe-MoS2 interface.
