Sensitive high-resolution ion microprobe

The sensitive high-resolution ion microprobe (also sensitive high mass-resolution ion microprobe or SHRIMP) is a large-diameter, double-focusing secondary ion mass spectrometer (SIMS) sector instrument produced by Australian Scientific Instruments in Canberra, Australia. Similar to the IMS 1270-1280-1300 large-geometry ion microprobes produced by CAMECA, Gennevilliers, France and like other SIMS instruments, the SHRIMP microprobe bombards a sample under vacuum with a beam of primary ions that sputters secondary ions that are focused, filtered, and measured according to their energy and mass.

The SHRIMP is primarily used for geological and geochemical applications. It can measure the isotopic and elemental abundances in minerals at a 10 to 30 μm-diameter scale and with a depth resolution of 1–5 μm. Thus, SIMS method is well-suited for the analysis of complex minerals, as often found in metamorphic terrains, some igneous rocks, and for relatively rapid analysis of statistical valid sets of detrital minerals from sedimentary rocks. The most common application of the instrument is in uranium-thorium-lead geochronology, although the SHRIMP can be used to measure some other isotope ratio measurements (e.g., δ7Li or δ11B) and trace element abundances.

Examples of use of SHRIMP
1. Try raw shrimp if you prefer, or mix shrimp and scallops.
2. The dip is prepared with garlic, shrimp paste, dried shrimp and vegetable oil.
3. Simple shrimp–and–rice dishes became shrimp–grouper–mango–avocado–caviar and–rice teasers.
4. The shrimp fisherman and occasional welder lost everything in Katrina: his shrimp boat, his trailer, his welding machine.
5. She said it was necessary so contract workers aboard two shrimp boats the couple owns could continue trawling for shrimp.
