Visit PHI in booths 19 & 20 at the 18th International Conference on Secondary Ion Mass Spectrometry (SIMS XVIII), to be held in Riva del Garda (Trento, Italy) from the 18th to the 23rd of September 2011. The conference will be hosted by the Riva del Garda Fierecongressi conference centre, and will provide a forum for colleagues from both academia and industries throughout the World to exchange results and new ideas on Secondary Ion Mass Spectrometry and related techniques. The conference will cover advancements of scientific knowledge from fundamentals to applications. Discussion on present possibilities and future developments of the technique, in view of the future requirements coming from technology and basic research, will be particularly solicited also with dedicated discussion sessions.

PHI presentations at SIMS XVIII will include:
