SIMS analysis
Secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS) is a highly sensitive analytical technique for compositional analysis and depth profiling of thin films, coatings, and other solid materials. It provides detailed information on elemental and isotopic distributions, impurity concentrations, and chemical composition variations down to ppb levels. Due to its nanometer-scale depth resolution, SIMS is particularly valuable for analyzing ultra-thin layers, interfaces, impurity layers, and dopant profiles.
