Description

A scanning SCANIIR (surface composition analysis by neutral and ion impact radiation) microscope for lateral and in-depth composition analysis of insulators has been developed, employing a photon counting technique with a ratemeter. The spatial resolution of this system was estimated to be about 30 μm by observing Cu(I) 324.8-nm photon images of a 200-mesh circular-type Cu grid. The depth profile of a SiO2/Si interface was depicted using a Si(I) 288.2-nm photon, which yields in-depth resolution of approximately 40 nm. (author)
