The derivatization of organoarsenic compounds by different reagents like thioglycolates or dithiols and the subsequent analysis by GC-MS as a molecular specific technique was investigated and described. The possible derivatization reagents methyl- and ethylthioglycolate (TGM and TGE), 1,3-propane- and 1,5-pentanedithiol

We compare electrochemically modified or thiol-functionalized single-crystal samples of the topological insulator (TI) Bi2Te0.9Se2.1 to freshly cleaved/air-exposed control samples and use X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) to investigate the extent of any surface oxidation. XPS spectra for a TI sample maintained
