ISO Definitions for Terms used in Surface Chemical Analysis and scanning-probe microscopy
The surface chemical analysis vocabulary developed under ISO TC 201 Surface Chemical Analysis provides the definitions for scientific terms in the two ISO International Standards:
ISO 18115-1: 2013(E) - Surface chemical analysis - Vocabulary - Part 1, General terms and terms used in spectroscopy
ISO 18115-2: 2013(E) - Surface chemical analysis - Vocabulary - Part 2, Terms used in scanning-probe microscopy
These Vocabularies are available from ISO (International Standards Organization in Geneva) or, for Germany, through DIN in German language.
The English definitions are freely available from ISO as PDFs at the ISO portal but also on the ISO Online Browsing Platform.
The Vocabularies ISO 18115-1, 18115–2 and the definitions available on the ISO Online Browsing Platform are copyright protected documents:
