In the decade following the first edition of this book, TOF-SIMS: materials analysis by Mass Spectrometry has been transformed by the adoption of heavy polyatomic or cluster primary ion sources. Lower damage rates and higher yields of analytically useful secondary ions have benefited all areas of application, especially in medical science, but the ability to perform depth profiling of organics has opened up entirely new possibilities. These and other advances in instrumentation and data handling/interpretation are all reflected in this completely revised edition of TOF-SIMS: Materials Analysis by Mass Spectrometry.

Time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry (TOF-SIMS) is the most versatile of the surface analysis techniques that have been developed during the last 30 years. Current instrumentation provided a powerful combination of capabilities for molecular detection and trace element determination, depth profiling, imaging in two and three dimensions, and microanalysis.

The Second Edition of TOF-SIMS: Materials Analysis by Mass Spectrometry is dedicated to the subject and the treatment is comprehensive. Following overview and historical chapters, there are sections devoted to the instrumentation and sample handling, fundamentals and molecular dynamics simulations, optimisation methods-including laser post- ionisation of sputtered neutrals, data interpretation and analytical applications.

All the contributors are internationally recognised as leaders in their respective fields and come from both Europe, the USA and Asia.

Prof. David Briggs BSc (Chem.), PhD, DSc received his degrees from the University of Durham. His career as a research scientist included 27 years with ICI plc, when he also held a number of visiting professorships, and six years as Professor of Surface Chemical Analysis at the University of Nottingham. During this time he published over 200 papers/articles and 10 books in his specialised field. In addition he was editor-in-chief of an international journal, a consultant and co-founder of a niche publishing company.

Prof. John Vickerman is a pioneer and international leader in the development of surface analysis by secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS). Building on an early career focused on basic surface chemistry and catalysis, over the last 30 years his group at the University of Manchester has made a major contribution to understanding the fundamental phenomenology and developing SIMS as a molecular mass spectrometry with the analytical power to probe chemical complexity at a level that defeats other techniques. Resulting in over 250 papers, 5 books and 50 doctoral theses, this work has contributed to the basic science of the technique, to instrumental developments and to the industrial exploitation of SIMS for applied surface analysis.
