Abstract
It is shown that RBa(2)Cu(3)O(7-x) single crystals may be used as refe rence samples for the quantitative analysis of RBa(2)Cu(3)O(7-x) thin films by SNMS. RSF-values for Y and Cu (relative to Ba) determined for ceramic RBa(2)Cu(3)O(7-x) samples are higher than those for single cr ystals. This difference may be caused by Ba segregation on grain bound aries. The depth profile analysis of YSZ/Al2O3 samples was performed b y DBM using a Ni grid to prevent sample charging. The reproducibility of analysis tvas better than 10%.
