The LG-SIMS-Nancy analytical facility specializes in in situ isotopic and elemental analyses by secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS) at high spatial resolution (hundreds of nanometers to tens of micrometers), high sensitivity, and high precision.
SIMS is used to measure elemental concentrations and isotopic compositions in solids (glasses, minerals, alloys, metals, etc.) for ions with elements ranging from that of hydrogen to that of uranium.
The most common analyses on our instruments are stable isotopic analyses, both traditional (H, C, N, O, and S) and non-traditional (Li, Be, B, Mg, Si, Cl, Ca, Fe, Cu, Pb), isotopic dating (U–Pb, Al–Mg, Mn–Cr, Rb–Sr, and K–Ca), and analyses of trace element (rare earths, halogens) and volatile concentrations (CO2, H2O).
The LG-SIMS-Nancy analytical facility at the CRPG—designated an INSU National Instrument and integrated into the RéGEF SIMS research infrastructure—is the only laboratory in France equipped with these instruments and, since 1998, has welcomed French researchers upon request. The platform is also integrated into the local ANATELo research infrastructure, which brings together the analytical and experimental resources of the OTELo Research Units (the scientific “pole” of the University of Lorraine and the Observatory of Universe Sciences (OSU)), and has held INFRA+ accreditation since February 2026.
équipements
IMS 1270-E7 (LG-SIMS)
History:
First installed at the CRPG in 1996, this instrument’s electronic and vacuum systems were completely replaced in 2014. A new cryogenic system (a cold trap to achieve a better vacuum) and six-place sample airlock were added in 2021. The IMS 1270-E7 has been equipped with a Hyperion radio-frequency (RF) oxygen ion source. This instrument’s performance is currently equivalent to that of IMS 1280/IMS 1300.
Features:
The IMS 1270-E7 is equipped with a new optical imaging system adapted from the IMS 1300 LG-SIMS and facilitating the identification of micrometric phases and minerals.
The monocollection Faraday cage is equipped with a 1012 Ω preamplification card. This new card significantly reduce the electronic noise during analyses, improving analytical precision at low count rates (e.g., ±0.2‰ compared to ±0.6‰ with a 1011 Ω card at a count rate of 6 × 105 cps; Bouden et al., 2021).
IMS 1280-HR2 (LG-SIMS)
History:
This instrument was first installed at the CRPG in 2009 and was equipped with a Hyperion RF oxygen ion source in 2017.
Features:
The form of the magnetic sector of the mass spectrometer in the IMS 1280-HR2 is optimized to achieve very high mass resolutions (MRP up to 45,000).
The monocollection and multicollection Faraday cages are equipped with 1012 Ω preamplification cards. These new cards significantly decrease the electronic noise during analyses, improving analytical precision at low count rates (e.g., ±0.2‰ compared to ±0.6‰ with a 1011 Ω card at a count rate of 6 × 105 cps; Bouden et al., 2021).

Acess/Prices
The LG-SIMS-Nancy facility is an INSU (SN-INSU/CNRS) national service that welcomes the projects of ‘internal’ users (CRPG researchers and their direct collaborators) as well as projects submitted by the French scientific community within the framework of INSU National Instruments and ‘external’ projects (i.e. within the Europlanet network, foreign universities, industry, private sector).
Requests for access to the platform should be made using the form to be downloaded, completed and sent to the generic address crpg-lgsims@univ-lorraine.fr.
For first-time requests or specific questions, please contact platform staff in advance (crpg-lgsims@univ-lorraine.fr). Facility members can provide guidance concerning the feasibility of the measurements, reference material availability, and the expected analytical time.
All users must accept the conditions of access and work within the facility by signing the facility use charter (version française or English version).
The platform produces an annual activity report detailing its operations and the scientific projects it has carried out (in French). These reports can be viewed here.

Since January 1, 2025, our pricing has been certified by the CNRS and is eligible for ANR and ERC funds (decision available on request).
SAMPLE PREPARATION FOR AN ANALYTICAL SESSION
SIMS analyses require that the samples to be analyzed are perfectly flat and without asperities; a poor sample surface can reduce the quality of the analyses. Rock and mineral samples analyzed by SIMS are generally polished to 1 µm or 0.25 µm.
Different sample sizes and formats can be adapted to the sample holders of the LG-SIMS instruments, but we privilege thin sections (25 mm × 30 mm) or 1-inch (2.54 cm) circular sections ~1–5 mm thick.
If possible, we privilege samples mounted in indium, which promotes better vacuum conditions (via rapid degassing) and electrical conductivity. Non-conductive samples are gold- or carbon-covered before analyses.
For more atypical sample formats and unique cases, it is necessary to discuss sample preparation with the facility staff multiple weeks before analysis.
In general, it is highly recommended to contact the LG-SIMS-Nancy facility (crpg-lgsims@univ-lorraine.fr) in advance to discuss sample preparation. Together, we will determine the best preparation procedure so that the samples will meet the requirements and specifications of SIMS analyses.
We can provide technical support and provide access to sample preparation equipment and materials prior to analytical sessions. However, sample preparation remains the responsibility of the users (see the facility use charter).
