= Thermal desorption spectroscopy
{wiki=Thermal_desorption_spectroscopy}
Thermal desorption spectroscopy (TDS) is an analytical technique used to study the physical and chemical properties of materials, particularly surfaces and thin films. It involves the controlled heating of a sample to release adsorbed species, such as gases or volatile compounds, and measuring their desorption as a function of temperature. In TDS, the sample is typically placed in a vacuum chamber or a controlled atmosphere.
