[Vo]:Does species 69 evolve in-situ during fuel sputter-cleaning within SEM vacuum chamber?

2014-10-13 Thread Robert Ellefson
Looking closely at figures 5-8 of appendix 3 of the Lugano report, I believe we can see evidence for the evolution of a mass 69 species during sputter-cleaning of the samples while undergoing ToF-SIMS analysis in a scanning electron microscope. Figure 5 provides what amounts to a control run fo

I forgot to add in my original message that I believe figure 11 of appendix 3 further demonstrates that the magnitude of the species 69 signal seen in the spectra in figures 7 and 8 is not the direct byproduct of the sputter-cleaning process, because it does not show a similar post-sputtering 69 pe
