 TOF-SIMS involves bombarding a sample’s surface with primary ions, leading to the release and analysis of secondary ions. This technique allows for parallel detection of elemental and molecular ions, the generation of high-resolution 2D and 3D images, and accurate peak identification through tandem MS. TOF-SIMS is a valuable tool for many applications in the pharmaceutical, materials science, energy, and semiconductor industries.
