The second generation scanning photoelectron microscope at beamline X1A of the National Synchrotron Light Source (X1A SPEM-II) is designed for spatially resolved elemental and chemical analysis by x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) on material surfaces. This microscope can focus photon energies between 300 to 800 eV with submicron spatial resolution. Multiple photoelectron images can be acquired simultaneously with the use of a hemispherical sector analyzer (HSA) with multi-channel detection (MCD), which enables a technique called parallel imaging for chemical state mapping (PICSM). The PICSM technique was demonstrated using a Si/SiO{sub 2} pattern.
