The development of Focused Ion Beam–Scanning Electron Microscopy (FIB-SEM) systems has provided significant advances in the processing and characterization of polymers. A fundamental understanding of ion–sample interactions is still missing despite FIB-SEM being routinely applied in microstructural analyses of polymers. This study applies Secondary Electron Hyperspectral Imaging to reveal oxygen and xenon plasma FIB interactions on the surface of a polymer (in this instance, polypropylene). Secondary Electron Hyperspectral Imaging (SEHI) is a technique housed within the SEM chamber that exhibits multiscale surface sensitivity with a high spatial resolution and the ability to identify carbon bonding present using low beam energies without requiring an Ultra High Vacuum (UHV). SEHI is made possible through the use of through-the-lens detectors (TLDs) to provide a low-pass SE collection of low primary electron beam energies and currents. SE images acquired over the same region of interest from different energy ranges are plotted to produce an SE spectrum. The data provided in this study provide evidence of SEHI’s ability to be a valuable tool in the characterization of polymer surfaces post-PFIB etching, allowing for insights into both tailoring polymer processing FIB parameters and SEHI’s ability to be used to monitor serial FIB polymer surfaces in situ.
