Abstract :
SIMS (secondary ion mass spectrometry) is recognized as an essential analytical tool for the diagnostic characterization of ion implanter design and operation. SurfaceSIMS (secondary ion mass spectrometry using oxygen flooding with low energy, high off-normal incident angle primary ions) provides the needed high sensitivity and uniform near-surface ion yields required for accurate and reproducible depth profiling of shallow ion implants and surface contaminants related to ion implantation
