In the present paper, the role of phosphorus in the microstructural transformations occurring during plasma nitriding of the Fe-Mo-P alloy is investigated and discussed. Auger Electron Spectroscopy (AES) measurements were carried out on the nitrided specimens. In fact, this technique has a good spatial resolution and nitrogen sensitivity and the line shape analysis represents a powerful tool for determining the chemical environment in which the emitting element is found. In this respect, a detailed study of the line shape of the nitrogen Auger transition was shown to be a powerful method to gain information on the nitrides precipitated in the surface layers.
