A new LA-MIC-ICP-MS analytical technique has been developed for the rapid measurement of 206Pb/238U zircon age (<1%, 2s) at a high spatial resolution. We show that this technique can be routinely employed to date U–Pb in small and/or complex zircons, providing a powerful tool for geochronology.

Here we present a method for in-situ determination of stable antimony (Sb) isotope compositions by ultraviolet (UV)-femtosecond-laser-ablation-multi-collector-ICP-MS (fs-LA-MC-ICP-MS). Metallic antimony and a number of Sb minerals (stibnite, senarmontite, chalcostibite, tetrahedrite,...

ABSTRACTWe discuss applications of optoacoustic film thickness metrology for characterization of copper chemical-mechanical polishing (CMP). We highlight areas where the use of optoacoustics for CMP characterization provides data complementary to that obtained by other techniques because of its ability to directly measure film thickness with high spatial resolution in a rapid, non-destructive manner. Examples considered include determination of planarization length, measurement of film thickness at intermediate stages of polish, and measurement of arrays of metal lines.
