Impact and Correction of Analytical Positioning on Accuracy of Zircon U-Pb Dating by SIMS

Secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS) is one of the most important analytical tools for geochronology, especially for zircon U-Pb dating. Due to its advantages in spatial resolution and analytical precision, SIMS is the preferred option for multi-spot analyses on single zircon grain with complex st...
