ABSTRACTResonance ionization mass spectrometry (RIMS) of neutral atoms sputtered from III-V heterostructure semiconductor materials provides quantitative information about the dopant position near interfaces. The prerequisite for quantitative results is the saturation of the ionization step. The absolute signals are affected by primary ion beam parameters which affect sputter yield, atomization efficiency and quantum state partitioning, but not ionization efficiency. We have found that matrix effects are minimal and use RIMS results to help elucidate dopant migration near interfaces and interpret SIMS matrix effects. Device performance and understanding of materials growth are both aided.
