Sputtering YieldSputtering yield is the average number of
sputtered particles per incident ion.
• In the linear cascade regime, the sputtering yield is proportional to ion beam energy.
• Sputtering yield depends on a) atomic number, b) Displacement energy, c) Matrix of solid.
Ion sputtering yield is the average number of ions emitted per incident primary ion.
Many factors affect the ion yield. The most obvious are
• Intrinsic tendency to be ionized
Positive ion : Ionization potential (IP)
Negative ion: Electron affinity (EA)
• Matrix effects

are also abundant

Mass Resolution• Several definitions of mass resolution (R).
• R - capability of a mass spectrometer to differentiate between masses.
M - mass difference between two adjacent peaks that are just resolved M - nominal mass of the first peak or mean mass of two peaks.
• Resolution is also defined as the full width at half maximum (FWHM) of a peak.

Inherent SIMS Sensitivity• Silicon with an atom density of 51022 Si atoms/cm3
• Bombarded area of (100 m)2 = (10-2 cm)2 = 10-4 cm2
• Sputtering rate of 1.0 nm/sec = 10-7 cm/sec• Then, silicon volume removed per second by sputtering is V = 10-4 cm2 10-7 cm/sec = 5 10-11 cm3/sec• Hence, a number of the removed atoms per second by sputtering is N = 5 1022 cm-3 10-11 cm-3/sec = 5 1011/sec Assume • 1% Secondary ion yield• 10% Ion transmission• Then, ions detected 5 1011/sec 10-3 ions = 5 108 ions/sec• If 5 ions/sec is a threshold, then • (5 ion/sec)/(5 108 ion/sec) = 10-8 = 10 10 ppb • The detection limit is 5 1014 atoms/cm3

Common Modes of Analysis
• The bulk analysis mode is used to detect trace-level components, while sacrificing both depth and lateral resolution.
• The mass scan mode is used to survey the entire mass spectrum within a certain volume of the specimen.
• The depth profiling mode is use to measure the concentration of pre-selected elements as a function of depth from the surface.
• The imaging mode is used to determine the lateral distribution of pre-selected elements. In certain circumstances, an imaging depth profile combining both depth profiling and imaging can be obtained.

CRATER EFFECT
The shape of the depth profile
can be affected by
a) Redeposition by sputtering
from the crater wall onto
the analysis area
b) Direct sputtering from the
crater wall
![Page 41: Secondary Ion Mass Spectrometry Professor Paul K Chu.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062304/56649d4d5503460f94a2cdf9/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
Crater Effect
(a)
(b)
(a) Ions sputtered from a selected central area (using a physical aperture or electronic gating) of the crater are passed into the mass spectrometer.
(b) The beam is usually swept over a large area of the sample and signal detected from the central portion of the sweep. This avoids crater edge effects.
The analyzed area is usually required to be at least a factor of 3 3 smaller than the scanned area.

Imaging
The example (microbeam) images show a pyrite (FeS2) grain from a sample of gold ore with gold located in the rims of the pyrite grains. The image numerical scales and associated colors represent different ranges of secondary ion intensities per pixel.
Some instruments simultaneously produce high mass resolution and high lateral resolution. However, the SIMS analyst must trade high sensitivity for high lateral resolution because focusing the primary beam to smaller diameters also reduces beam intensity. High lateral resolution is required for mapping chemical elements.
