What Does IBS Stand For?
IBS stands for Ion Backscattering Spectroscopy
Ion Backscattering Spectroscopy (IBS) is a surface analysis technique used to investigate the composition and structure of materials. It involves the bombardment of a target sample with ions, which are then scattered back to a detector. The energy and angular distribution of the backscattered ions provide detailed information about the elemental composition, layer thickness, and chemical state of the surface layers. IBS is particularly valuable in materials science, semiconductor research, and thin film analysis, offering high sensitivity and depth resolution.
