What Does IID Stand For?

IID stands for Ion Impact Desorption

Ion Impact Desorption (IID) is a technique used in surface analysis and material characterization, where ions are accelerated and directed onto a target surface to induce the ejection of atoms or molecules. This process enables the study of surface composition and structure, providing valuable insights into various materials in fields such as chemistry, physics, and materials science. IID is notable for its ability to analyze a wide range of surfaces with high sensitivity and specificity.
