Abstract: | This study reports the characteristic fragmentation patterns from two polysiloxane polymers that form ordered overlayer on
silver substrates. Results are compared for the bombardment of various monatomic and polyatomic projectiles of Cs+, C60+ (10 keV), Bi1+, and Bi3+ (25 keV) in the high mass range time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry (TOF-SIMS) spectra. Results are reported from
sub-monolayer (solution cast) coverages of poly(dimethylsiloxane)s with the number average molecular weights (Mn) of 2200 and 6140 Da, respectively, and Langmuir-Blodgett monolayers of poly(methylphenylsiloxane) with molecular weights
(MW) from 600 and 1000 Da. For each film, Bi projectiles resulted in the emission of positive silver cluster ions from the
substrate under the polymer overlayer and peaks corresponding to silver cluster ions with larger mass were observed by impact
of polyatomic 25 keV Bi3+ projectiles. In addition, depending on the change of energy of Bi3+, a different pattern of fragments was observed. With Cs+ and C60+ impact, however, the emission of silver cluster ions was not detected. In the case of C60+ impact for PDMS-6140, peaks corresponding to silver-cationized intact oligomers were not observed. In this paper, these results
are explained by the possible bombardment mechanism for each projectile, based on its mass, energy, and split trajectories
of the component atoms under the polyatomic impact. |
