Abstract

A few years ago, High Resolution Electron Energy Loss Spectroscopy (HREELS) - also named electron induced vibrational spectroscopy - has been successfully applied to characterize the composition and geometrical structure of polymer surfaces. In this review, the attributes of HREELS will be demonstrated and compared to the ones of other surface-sensitive spectroscopies. Special emphasis will be laid on the very unique information that can be obtained from the study of the incipient metallization stages of a well-defined polymer, i.e. a cured polyimide film.
