The adsorption and transport of molecules or ions in the confined space of microporous
materials often reveal properties not seen in either dense bulk or microporous materials. The …

Surface based mass spectrometric approaches fill an important niche in the mass analysis
portfolio of tools. The particular niche depends on both the underlying physics and chemistry …

The depth profiling of organic materials with argon cluster ion sputtering has recently
become widely available with several manufacturers of surface analytical instrumentation …

We report the results of a VAMAS (Versailles Project on Advanced Materials and Standards)
interlaboratory study on the measurement of composition in organic depth profiling. Layered …

The present theoretical study explores the interaction of various energetic molecular

This article reports the latest developments of our theoretical studies of gas cluster
bombardment of model macromolecular samples using molecular dynamics simulations …

The early stages of C60 bombardment of octane and octatetraene crystals are modeled
using molecular dynamics simulations with incident energies of 5− 20 keV. Using the …

This article reviews the results of molecular dynamics simulations of cluster sputtering of
hydrocarbon polymers obtained in the last few years and expand them with unpublished …

Transferring large nonvolatile molecules in the vacuum is key to both their characterization
by mass spectrometry (ion mobility, etc.) and their use as nanofabrication building blocks in …

Time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry is utilized to characterize the response of
Langmuir− Blodgett (LB) multilayers under the bombardment by buckminsterfullerene …
