In the Press
Dedicated probe for SIMS/SNMS. The Hiden EQS-series of quadrupole mass spectrometer probes were introduced for measurement of external ions in a vacuum environment, specifi cally for application to the SIMS surface analysis technique. The systems are now even further enhanced by the addition of a new high-effi ciency electron bombardment ion source mounted at the immediate entry region to the probe for direct measurement of secondary neutrals (SNMS), enabling quantifi cation of concentration over the full abundance range from trace level to 100%…
