Background removal from x‐ray photoelectron spectra (XPS) was evaluated using the Shirley method and the Tougaard method. The effect of background removal over a range of kinetic energy was evaluated, and the Tougaard method was found to be effective over a wide energy range. In this paper we report a modification of the Tougaard method that is shown to provide satisfactory background removal from a wide range of XPS data.
