The use of secondary-ion mass spectrometry (SIMS), nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) to detect the existence of amorphous silica in Ti3SiC2 oxidised at 500–1000°C is described. The formation of an amorphous SiO2 layer and its growth in thickness with temperature was monitored using dynamic SIMS. Results of NMR and TEM verify for the first time the direct evidence of amorphous silica formation during the oxidation of Ti3SiC2 at 1000°C.

Secondary Ion

The residual damage left after furnace-annealing Si wafers implanted with 30-keV B+ or 120-keV [Formula: see text] ions has been investigated for doses of 3–5 × 1015 ions∙cm−2. Transmission electron microscopy, Rutherford backscattering, and channeling were used to study the morphology and distribution of the damage while the B and F content and their depth distributions were determined by nuclear reaction analysis and secondary-ion mass spectrometry. For B+-implanted samples the residual damage is concentrated in a band at a depth corresponding to the B projected range. For [Formula: see text]-implanted samples the residual damage is located mainly in the region of the as-implanted amorphous–crystalline interface.
