Abstract
Up to now, many works in SIMS (see [1] and Refs. 1,2,5,8,9 therein) have been devoted to the study of the various phases (oxidation state of the metal) present in an oxidized metal. We have extended this kind of study to inorganic salts in which the metalloid is in various oxidation states. Therefore, we have investigated sulfate, sulfite, nitrate and nitrite salts using static and dynamic SIMS. Our purpose was to check the usefulness of the molecular information obtained from these systems and especially to see if the oxidation state of the metalloid can be deduced from the spectra. We also looked for possible artifacts induced by the ion beam and tried to follow chemical reactions on the surface of the salts.
