A high-resolution secondary ion mass spectrometer (SIMS) was constructed for solid surface analyses. The instrument is composed of a Hitachi IMA-2 ion probe and a stigmatic, second-order, double focusing mass spectrometer. Commercially available silicon wafers (p-type, 20 Ω cm) were analyzed as test samples. The highest mass resolving power was 11,000 (10% valley). The analytical sensitivity of this SIMS permits detection of boron to silicon at an ion ratio of 10 −7 . The inorganic and hydrocarbon element ions were accurately resolved. |
