Abstract
The first use of cavity ringdown spectroscopy (CRDS) to measure differential
(angular) sputter yield profiles of sputtered particles is reported. Owing to the path-integrated nature of CRDS,
inversion techniques are required. Our approach is to scan the optical axis relative to the source of
sputtered particles and to measure the spatial profile of the CRDS signals. Modeling is then used to determine
the differential sputter yield profile from the measured CRDS spatial profile. Demonstrative
measurements are made with a Nd:YAG pumped optical parametric oscillator laser system for
750 eV argon ions normally incident on a molybdenum target. At these conditions we find an under-
cosine sputtering distribution characterized by
