Description

Auger Electron Spectroscopy is now 25 years old and routine spectrometer can analyse (sub) microscopic sample area. This paper summarizes the main theoretical and experimental points needed to understand the use of a high spatial and energy resolution system. Limitations of the method due to the electron beam damage or due to the sensivity threshold are evaluated

Abstract (French)

La spectroscopie des electrons Auger a maintenant 25 ans, un spectrometre de routine peut analyser des surfaces d'echantillons sub-microscopiques. On resume les principaux points theoriques et experimentaux necessaires pour comprendre l'utilisation d'un systeme a haut pouvoir de resolution spatiale et energetique. On evalue les limitations de la methode dues au dommage cause par le faisceau d'electrons ou au seuil de sensibilite
