Abstract The recent developments in magnetic sector SIMS are reviewed. It is not aimed at a detailed description of these instruments which, for several of them, can be found elsewhere [1–8] but reviews the driving forces making necessary the development of magnetic sector SIMS for all types of analysis (single instrument alternative) as well as instruments dedicated to ultimate lateral resolution (50 nm), to isotopic ratio measurements with multicollection of all isotopes, to depth profiling at high depth resolution using an impact energy of 250 eV, and instruments allowing better flexibility about the amount of cesium incorporated in the specimen to optimize the formation of MCs clusters for the analysis of complex materials.
