About This Item
TS ISO 18115-2 is a vocabulary standard for the terms used in scanning-probe microscopy within surface chemical analysis. It brings together the language used to describe surface-related concepts at very small scales, helping users apply consistent terminology when discussing measurements, interpretation, and reporting.
This part sits alongside ISO 18115-1, which covers general terms and those used in spectroscopy. In general technical context, scanning-probe microscopy includes methods that probe a surface with a very fine tip to study surface topography and local interactions. Clear terminology matters because the same physical ideas can be described differently across instruments, laboratories, and sub-disciplines.
Why scanning-probe microscopy terminology is distinct
Scanning-probe microscopy is a family of techniques that generates information by moving a sharp probe across or near a surface. The associated vocabulary can involve image formation, tip-sample interaction, scanning geometry, and surface-specific descriptors that do not always align with other analytical methods. A vocabulary standard helps keep these terms consistent so that users can communicate precisely within the field.
- This standard belongs to the terminology of surface chemical analysis.
- It complements ISO 18115-1 by focusing on scanning-probe microscopy terms.
- Its subject is vocabulary, not a test method or an instrument specification.
- The document is identified as a withdrawn standard in the TSE record.
