SIMS Software Archive

The following is a list of shareware and freeware which we believe to be of interest to the SIMS community. We are particularly interested in instrument control and data reprocessing software written by SIMS users that may not be available anywhere else. Other types of information such as mechnical drawings, ion optical simulations of SIMS instrumentation and sputtering simulation programs would also be welcome. If you have material you would like to include in this archive, please email us

Software Disclaimer: We make no guarantee about the suitability or the accuracy of the information or the programs listed in this archive. We are not responsible for any problems which running or downloading this software causes. We are not aware of any virus containing programs, but all programs downloaded from here or elseware should be examined carefully for viruses.

Cameca Ion Microscope Software

bulletAlbert Fahey's Software Archive A group of resources written by Albert Fahey from NIST. Includes mechanical drawings for IMS 4F sample holders, source code to run Charles Evans and Associates interfaces to the Cameca IMS 3f-4F, programs for isotopic SIMS data reduction and REE analysis (and much more).

Sputter/Ion Implantation Simulations

bulletThe Stopping and Range of Ions in Matter (SRIM-also known as TRIM)SRIM, written by James F. Zieglers, calculates the energy loss of ions in solids, liquids and gases. This physics is combined with kinematic physics to calculate the transport of energetic ions in matter, including the transport of recoil atoms after ion/atom collisions. It can be used to predict energetic ion ranges in matter, ion transmission and reflection from matter, and the similar distributions for recoiling target atoms.
This package is a DOS package, and is simple to install in all DOS based systems.

Ion Optical Modeling

bulletSIMION 6.0 (demo version)
SIMION is a PC based ion optics simulation program that models ion optics problems with 2D symmetrical and/or 3D asymmetrical electrostatic and/or magnetic potential arrays. The program was written for thePC by David A. Dahl at the Idaho National Engineering Laboratory. A brief summary is provided here. The demo software comes with a complete manual which may be printed out. The program is marketed by Ion Source Software.
