Auger Electron Spectroscopy as Applied to the Study of the Fracture Behavior of Materials,

Abstract

This paper describes the use of AES in a wide range of fracture problems. Included are fracture studies of iron, aluminum based alloys and metal matrix/ceramic composites. The paper also describes how the AES analysis is combined with the SEM, inert ion sputtering, SIMS, ESCA, and other surface and near surface tools to assist in determining the fracture behavior of materials in various environments.
