The use of non destructive depth profiling by emission angle dependent XPS analysis is demonstrated for a thin contamination layer consisting of carbon, hydrogen and hydride‐bonded oxygen on top of an anodic oxide of Nb 2 O 5 on Nb. Using a double‐pass CMA with an angle resolved aperture and measured intensity ratios of O 1s (hydroxide)/O 1s (oxide) and O 1s (hydroxide‐/C 1s) as a function of the emission angle, the thickness ( d = 3.3 nm) and composition are determined.
