TOF-SIMS surface analysis: fib on cgs time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry

FIB on GCS

Information about the chemical composition in 2D and 3D are of increasing interest. The TOF.SIMS 5 is a powerful tool to provide this kind of information on most sample systems. However, the 3D analysis of extremely rough samples, samples with voids, and samples that exhibit strong local variations in density or sputter yield is almost impossible for conventional SIMS depth profiling.

IONTOF company: manufacturer of instruments for surface analysis: product time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry (TOF-SIMS) and high-sensitivity low-energy ion scattering (LEIS)

25 years of Innovation

IONTOF is a manufacturer of innovative instruments for surface analysis with different product lines for time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry (TOF-SIMS) and high-sensitivity low-energy ion scattering (LEIS).
Founded as a classical spin-off of the University of Muenster, IONTOF has meanwhile become the technological leader in the field of TOF-SIMS and LEIS instrumentation.
The company was founded by Prof. Alfred Benninghoven, Dr. Ewald Niehuis and Mr. Thomas Heller in 1989 to commercialise the original research carried out by Prof. Benninghoven and his team at the University of Muenster in Germany from the early 80's. Since the technique became commercially viable IONTOF has made many product improvements and more than 280 instruments are in operation in industrial and academic laboratories worldwide.
