Webinar - SIMS analysis of an oxide thin film with continuous composition gradient

Friday, November 15, 2024

Join our upcoming webinar on Tuesday Dec. 3rd & Thursday Dec. 5th to explore the application of Dynamic SIMS on thin film analysis!
 
Our speaker, Joseph Scola, has over 20 years of experience in the field of complex oxides. He will be introducing a D-SIMS analysis investigating matrix effects in a Ba1-xSrxTiO3 thin film (~250 nm) grown by combinatorial PLD on a LaNiSrO4/SrTiO3 stack.

Key learnings will include:
 
How the Ti signal varies with Ba-to-Sr substitution, driven by changes in atomic electronegativity.
The complexity of the sample leads to mass interferences, and the methods used to identify and simulate these interferences.
In-depth resolution and interface analysis using AFM and TEM, revealing insights into atomic mixing and roughness at the interfaces.
 
This webinar is ideal for those interested in complex oxides, thin film analysis, and high-resolution materials characterization. Don't miss the opportunity to deepen your understanding of D-SIMS applications and get your questions answered in the Q&A!
