Glow discharge optical emission spectroscopy gdoes is a spectroscopic method for the quantitative analysis of metals and other non metallic solids the idea was published and patented in 1968 by werner grimm from hanau germany ordinary atomic spectroscopy can be used to determine the surface of a material but not its layered structure in contrast gdoes gradually ablates the layers of . Pulsed rf glow discharge optical emission spectrometry offers ultra fast elemental depth profiling capability for the investigation of thin and thick films thanks to the use of a pulsed rf source coupled with a high resolution optical spectrometer the gd profiler 2 provides an excellent depth resolution allowing the fast evaluation of the .
