Summary

Understand the principles and applications of surface analysis

Analyzing the composition of a given surface is a crucial aspect of materials and biomedical sciences, with significant bearing on the way a material will interact with a particular environment or mapping molecules in tissue with sub-cellular resolution. Surface analysis draws upon a substantial body of research to analyze the outer few nanometres of a material and buried interface with nanometre resolutio…

About The Author

John C. Vickerman

JOHN C. VICKERMAN, PhD, DSc, FRSC, is Professor Emeritus at the University of Manchester. He received his PhD in Surface Chemistry from the University of Bristol and held postdoctoral fellowships at the University of Bristol and the Technical University of Eindhoven. He also held sabbatical Alexander von Humboldt Fellowships at the Universities of Munich and Berlin. He is recognized as a pioneer and international leader in the development of surface analysis by secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS). For his contributions, he received the Theophilus Redwood Award from the Royal Society of Chemistry and the Médaille Chevenard medal from the Société Française de Métallurgie et de Matériaux.

IAN S. GILMORE, PhD, FMedSci, is a Senior Fellow at the National Physical Laboratory in Teddington, UK, and a visiting Professor at the University of Nottingham. He is known for his breakthroughs in high-resolution molecular imaging by mass spectrometry. More recently, he innovated a quantum detector that significantly boosts the sensitivity of high-resolution mass spectrometers. He was elected a Fellow of the Academy of Medical Sciences in 2023 and is the recipient of the Medard W. Welch Award from the American Vacuum Society.
