Abstract
While scanning Auger micrographs are used extensively for illustrating the stoichiometry of complex surfaces and for indicating areas of interest for fine point Auger spectroscopy, there are many problems in the quantification and analysis of Auger images. These problems include multiple contrast mechanisms and the lack of meaningful relationships with other Auger data. Collection of multielemental Auger images allows some new approaches to image analysis and presentation. Information about the distribution and quantity of elemental combinations at a surface are retrievable, and particular combinations of elements can be imaged, such as alloy phases. Results from the precipitate hardened alloy A1-2124 illustrate multispectral Auger imaging.
