Application of argon plasma sheet in the etching process of calcium carbonate crystals for AFM tests

This paper presents utilization of argon plasma for gradual etching of calcium carbonate crystals. The plasma treatment has been chosen as it appears to be the technique that enables removal of following material layers, thus, the access to the inside of crystals is possible. Examples of investigati...
