For this reason Auger spectra are typically displayed in a differentiated mode as shown in the green spectrum. Detection limits for AES are approximately 0.1 atomic percent. 2

7 Auger Electron Spectroscopy Auger Electron Spectroscopy is an analytical technique that provides compositional information from the top few monolayers of a material Detect all elements above He Detection limits: atomic % Surface sensitive: top 5-75 Å Spatial resolution: < 60 Å probe size (PHI 710) 7
8 What Information Does Auger Provide? Surface composition at high spatial resolution Secondary Electron Imaging Provides high magnification visualization of the sample Elemental analysis (spectra) Determines what elements are present & their quantity Elemental imaging (mapping) Illustrates two-dimensional elemental distributions High energy resolution spectra, imaging and depth profiling Chemical state analysis for some materials Sputter depth profiling Reveals thin film and interfacial composition 8

14 PHI 710: CMA with Coaxial Geometry No shadowing Every pixel can be identified as part of a Ni sphere or as part of the In substrate. The Ni particles are complete spheres and the substrate fills in around the particles. Variations in In and Ni intensity provide meaningful compositional information. Secondary Electron Image Ni Map In Map 14
15 Non-Coaxial Geometry Shadowing Many pixels are of unknown composition, apparently neither Ni balls nor In substrate. The Ni particles are not observed as complete spheres and very little of the substrate is seen. Variations in In and Ni intensity do not provide meaningful compositional information. Secondary Electron Image Ni Map In Map 15
16 PHI 710 High Energy Resolution Mode How does the high energy resolution mode work? The CMA energy resolution is given as: ΔE / E = 0.5% An optics element placed between the sample surface and the entrance to the standard CMA retards the Auger electrons, reducing their energy, E From the energy resolution equation, if E is reduced, ΔE is also reduced and so is the Auger peak width; energy resolution is improved The CMA is not modified in any way and retains a 360º coaxial view of the sample relative to the axis of the electron gun US Patent 12 / 705,261 16
