## Abstract A very simplified model of atomic‐scale etch pitting during sputtering erosion for composition depth profiling is used to modify the Benninghoven–Hofmann approach to layer‐by‐layer sputtering. It is shown that analytically tractable defining equations result, with solutions that indicat

## Abstract The depth resolution in Auger in‐depth profiles of TiN thin films on smooth Si substrates is determined by the evolution of a sputter‐induced surface roughness. It is shown that this effect depends critically on the ion angle of incidence. Therefore, the depth resolution can be improved

## Abstract To study the factors limiting the depth resolution of sputter depth profiling, we have examined the influence of ion mixing, ion beam‐induced roughness and temperature on the interface resolution of metallic bilayers consisting of Pt on top of Ni or Ti. We studied Pt/Ni and Pt/Ti interf

Depth profiles have been made for a new batch of the certified reference material, BCR 261, of ~30 nm and 100 nm of anodic tantalum pentoxide layers on tantalum foil. Atomic force microscopy studies show that the preparation method traditionally used provides an excellent substrate root-mean-square
