34、ctangular samples with a width of more than 5 mm, generally 20 mm to 100 mm, are suitable);b) cathodic sputtering of the surface coating in a direct current or radio frequency glow-discharge device;INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO 16962:2017(E) ISO 2017 All rights reserved 1BS ISO 16962:2017ISO 16962:2017
35、(E)c) excitation of the analyte atoms in the plasma formed in the glow-discharge device;d) spectrometric measurement of the intensities of characteristic emission spectral lines of the analyte atoms and ions as a function of sputtering time (qualitative depth profile);e) conversion of the depth prof
36、ile in units of intensity versus time to mass fraction versus depth by means of calibration functions (quantification). Calibration of the system is achieved by measurements on calibration samples of known chemical composition and measured sputtering rate.5 Apparatus5.1 Glow-discharge optical-emissi
37、on spectrometer5.1.1 GeneralThe required instrumentation includes an optical-emission spectrometer system consisting of a Grimm type1or similar glow-discharge source (direct current or radio frequency powered) and a simultaneous optical spectrometer as described in ISO 14707, capable of providing su
38、itable spectral lines for the analyte elements. It is also common to combine this with a sequential spectrometer (monochromator), allowing the addition of an extra spectral channel to a depth profile measurement. An array-type detector, such as a charge coupled device (CCD) or a charge injection dev
39、ice (CID) can also be used for simultaneous detection to cover a wide spectral range of the analytical lines.The inner diameter of the hollow anode of the glow-discharge source should be in the range 2 mm to 8 mm. A cooling device for thin specimens, such as a metal block with circulating cooling li
40、quid, is also recommended, but not strictly necessary for implementation of the method.Since the principle of determination is based on continuous sputtering of the surface layer, the spectrometer shall be equipped with a digital readout system for time-resolved measurement of the emission intensiti
41、es. A system capable of a data acquisition speed of at least 300 measurements/second per spectral channel is recommended, but for a large number of applications speeds of 50 measurements/second per spectral channel are acceptable. In practice, it has been established that 10 to 100 measurements/seco
42、nd per spectral channel are suitable.5.1.2 Selection of spectral linesFor each analyte to be determined, there exist a number of spectral lines which can be used. Suitable lines shall be selected on the basis of several factors, including the spectral range of the spectrometer used, the analyte mass
43、 fraction range, the sensitivity of the spectral lines and any spectral interference from other elements present in the test specimens. For applications where several of the analytes of interest are major elements in the specimens, special attention shall be paid to the occurrence of self-absorption
44、 of certain highly sensitive spectral lines (so-called “resonance lines”). Self-absorption causes non-linear calibration curves at high analyte mass fraction levels, and strongly self-absorbed lines should therefore be avoided for the determination of major elements. Suggestions concerning suitable
45、spectral lines are given in Annex B. Spectral lines other than those listed may be used, so long as they have favourable characteristics.5.1.3 Selection of glow-discharge source type5.1.3.1 Anode sizeMost GD-OES instruments on the market are delivered with options to use various anode diameters, 2 m
46、m, 4 mm and 8 mm being the most common. Some older instruments have one anode only, usually 8 mm, while the most commonly used anode in modern instruments is 4 mm. A larger anode requires larger specimens and higher power during analysis; therefore, the specimen is heated to a greater extent. On the
47、 other hand, a larger anode gives rise to a plasma of larger volume that emits more light, resulting in lower detection limits (i.e. higher analytical sensitivity). Furthermore, a larger anode helps 2 ISO 2017 All rights reservedBS ISO 16962:2017ISO 16962:2017(E)to mask inhomogeneity within a surfac
48、e layer. This may or may not be an advantage, depending on the application. In a large number of applications, the 4 mm anode is a good compromise. However, in surface analysis applications, it is rather common to encounter problems of overheating of the specimens due to surface layers of poor heat
49、conductivity and/or very thin specimens, for example. In such cases, a smaller anode (typically 2 or 2,5 mm) is preferable, even if there is some loss of analytical sensitivity.5.1.3.2 Type of power supplyThe glow-discharge source can be either a type powered by a direct current (DC) power supply or a radio frequency (RF) type. The most important difference is that the RF type can sputter both conductive and non-conductive specimens; hence, this is the only type that can be used for polymer coatings and insulating oxide layers,
