ABSTRACTA secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS) system has been incorporated into the AT&T-BL second generation focused ion beam (FIB) micromachining system. The primary applications are end-point detection and topographical element mapping. End-point detection of Cr micromachining on photomasks was done with raster sizes ranging from 10 μm x 10 μm to 3 μm x 3 μm. SIMS end-points, total ions images, and transmitted light measurements show that the ion-milling can be controlled to stop prior to or after the Cr/glass interface. Mass selected secondary ion images have been obtained for high yield ions such as52Cr+ and27 A1+ on raster fields of 25 μm in time intervals ranging from 20 to 100 sec. Al+ SIMS images of 1 μm lines and spaces from a VLSI test pattern have been obtained.

Abstract We describe an immunoassay for human choriomammo-tropin by use of the fluorescein-labeled hormone (of human origin). The technique is generally similar to the radioimmunoassay for this material, but has the advantage of stability of tracer and avoidance of radiation hazard. However, the procedure requires approximately 50-fold more tracer than does the radioimmunoassay, and this would be a disadvantage with materials for which supplies of purified antigen are scarce. Furthermore, both within-assay variation (3.9%) and between-assay variation (7.8--7.9%) were less satisfactory than that of radioimmunoassay (1.5% and 2.2--3%, respectively). This is almost certainly the result of imprecision of end-point detection and could probably be corrected by further attention to equipment design.
