Description

After describing the design and properties of the ion sources, the analytical performances of spark source, laser, glow discharge and secondary ion mass spectrometry are compared. The criteria are the sample requirements, the detectable elements, the detection limits, element sensitivity factors and the achievable accuracy. Typical areas of use for these methods are derived from these properties. (orig.)
