Among various types of cluster secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS), electrospray droplet impact/secondary ion mass spectrometry (EDI/SIMS) is unique due to its high ionization efficiency and non-selective atomic/molecular-level surface etching ability. In this study, EDI/SIMS was applied to synthetic polymers of polystyrene (PS) and poly(9,9-di-n-octylfluonyl-2,7diyl) (PFO) spin-coated on a silicon substrate.
