Summary on Grant Application Form
The quantitative 3D analysis of solid materials at high spatial resolution using AEA or SIMS presents a number of common problems. We propose to exploit instrumentation, methods computer codes and samples already available in York and Warwick and adapt them for 3D quantitative analysis. Instrumentation will include the uniquely powerful EVA 1010 magnetic sector for EVA 3000 quadruple SIMS instruments (Warwick) and the multispectral Auger microscope (York). At York, a large set of specially fabricated silicon structures with B, P and As dopants and a wide range of feature sizes will be bevelled with a Ga LMIG and studied by multi-imaging to be compared with SIMS imaging at Warwick. Computer codes developed at York will be adapted for SIMS at Warwick.
