It works by using a cluster ion source to sputter desorb material from a solid sample surface. Prior to the advent of the cluster source, SIMS was severely limited in its ability to characterize soft samples as a result of damage from the atomic source. Molecular samples were essentially destroyed during analysis, limiting the method's sensitivity and precluding compositional depth profiling. The use of new and emerging cluster ion beam technologies has all but eliminated these limitations, enabling researchers to enter into new fields once considered unattainable by the SIMS method.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eWith contributions from leading mass spectrometry researchers around the world, \u003ci\u003eCluster Secondary Ion Mass Spectrometry: Principles and Applications\u003c\/i\u003e describes the latest breakthroughs in instrumentation, and addresses best practices in cluster SIMS analysis.

Mahoney, PhD,\u003c\/b\u003e is a recognized expert and leader in the field of Secondary Ion Mass Spectrometry (SIMS). Throughout her career, she has focused primarily on the application of SIMS to molecular targets, and has played a significant role in the development of cluster SIMS for polymer depth profiling applications. She received her PhD in analytical chemistry from SUNY Buffalo in 1993. She spent the following eight years at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), where much of her molecular depth profiling work was performed. Christine is currently employed as a senior research scientist at the Environmental Molecular Sciences Laboratory (EMSL) at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL), where she continues to lead research in the field of SIMS.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePublication Date: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e15 July 2013\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePublisher: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWiley\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eImprint: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWiley\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eISBN-13: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e9780470886052\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFormat: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHardback\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePage Count: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e380\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight (oz): \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e26.4\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Wiley","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44378542571660,"sku":"9780470886052","price":127.76,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9780470886052_2aa90f8e-6bfb-4e96-8e5e-b97220646f83.jpg?v=1780240577","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9780470886052","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
