~uad~pole results with 400 eV O,+ at 0" and no flooding.
A profile of a 500-eV arsenic implant by Hitzman and Mount E1271 shows
the effect of CS+ primary ion energy and incidence angle on depth resolution
(Fig. 4.38). These As- profiles also demonstrate the high sensitivity of the SIMS
technique.
The use of MCs+ to make quantitative profiling easier is illustrated in Fig.

Imaging of elemental and isotopic dist~butions on surfaces has proved useful for
diffusion measurements, corrosion and reactivity studies, contamination identifi-
cation, and many other applications. SIMS imaging is particularly useful because
of its high sensitivity. An example was the application problem in which a IJ-
