Application of SIMS to Analysis of Steels

  • Conference paper
Secondary Ion Mass Spectrometry SIMS II

Part of the book series: Springer Series in Chemical Physics ((CHEMICAL,volume 9))

Abstract

The mechanical and chemical properties of steels are largely influenced by the concentrations and distributions of impurity elements. A variety of analytical techniques have been applied to analysis of these elements, and it has been proven that secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS) is one of the most useful. SIMS has great sensitivity with excellent lateral resolution and can accomplish surface analysis. These capabilities make SIMS a unique technique for solving several metallurgical problems such as corrosion, passivation, toughness and brittleness. The present paper is a brief review of studies performed in our laboratory using an IMMA made by Applied Research Laboratories.
