Depth profiling XPS analysis of sulfur content using a C60+ ion bombardment of Lys x-linked + 20 Barrier Layer Films. Stacked spectra in the S2p region after 1, 20, 40, 50, 60, and 80 cycles corresponding to probe depths of approximately 7 nm, 131 nm, 263 nm, 328 nm, 394 nm, and 525 nm, respectively (A). Integrated S2p area counts after every sputter cycle is shown as a function of probe depth from the film surface (B).
