Description

The TOFSIMS5 is a time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometer for molecular and elemental surface analysis using a bismuth cluster analysis beam.

This instrument is instrument is used for depth profiling of flat, multilayer samples with high-depth resolution. We can couple imaging and depth profiling experiments to produce 3-dimensional images of changes in chemistry below the surface of a material.

Specifications

  • Elemental and isotopic imaging down to 100 nm lateral resolution, and Angstrom-resolution depth profiling (caesium, oxygen and argon-cluster ion beams) is also available from this instrument.
  • Surface chemical analysis (<2 nm) for both positive and negative elemental, isotopic and molecular analytes at high mass resolution.Surface chemical imaging, potentially down to 100 nm resolution.

Applications

  • Semiconductors
  • Manufactured components
  • Polymers
  • Geology
