Determination of molecular stopping cross section of 12C, 16O, 28Si, 35Cl, 58Ni, 79Br, and 127I in silicon nitride
2015
Abstract Silicon nitride is a technologically important material in a range of applications due to a combination of important properties. Ion beam analysis techniques, and in particular, heavy ion elastic recoil detection analysis can be used to determine the stoichiometry of silicon nitride films, which often deviates from the ideal Si3N4, as well as the content of impurities such as hydrogen, even in the presence of other materials or in a matrix containing heavier elements. Accurate quantification of IBA results depends on the basic data used in the data analysis. Quantitative depth profiling relies on the knowledge of the stopping power cross sections of the materials studied for the io…
The first experimental values for the stopping power of 89Y ions in carbon, nickel and gold
2009
Abstract The stopping power values of 89 Y ions in carbon, nickel and gold were measured with accuracy to better than 5% in the energy range from 0.03 to 8.2 MeV/u. The newly developed B-TOF method was used for the measurements. The results are compared with theoretical and semi-empirical predictions. For this ion/absorber combination no prior experimental data are available.
Radial electron fluence around ion tracks as a new physical parameter for the detection threshold of PADC using Geant4-DNA toolkit
2018
International audience; The detection threshold of poly(allyl dyglycol carbonate), PADC, for C ions is determined as 55 eV/nm in stopping power, which is significantly higher than that for proton and He ions. The stopping power is not a universal parameter for expressing the detection threshold of PADC. A new physical parameter of Radial Electron Fluence around Ion Tracks, REFIT, is proposed to describe the detection threshold of PADC. It is defined as the number density of electrons passing through the surface of a cylinder of a certain radius that is co-axial with the trajectory. Furthermore, preliminary calculations are presently being performed using the Monte Carlo simulation code of G…
Atoms embedded in an electron gas: Phase shifts and cross sections
1983
The Fermi-level scattering phase shifts and the transport cross sections are reported for atoms embedded in a homogeneous electron gas. The applications of the results are discussed, using the electronic stopping power for slow ions and impurity resistivity as examples. Peer reviewed
Energeettisten protonien jarruuntuminen nestemäisessä vedessä
2011
Tämän työn tarkoituksena oli mitata protonien jarruuntumiskyky nestemäisessä vedessä energia-alueella 4 - 20 MeV. Työssä käytettiin micro channel plate -pohjaisia lentoaikailmaisimia. Lopputulosten suhteelliset virheet vaihtelivat välillä 2,0 - 16,5 % mediaanin ollessa 4,2 % ja keskiarvon 5,3 %. Saadut tulokset olivat hyvässä sopusoinnussa ICRU:n raportin numero 49 antamien simuloitujen arvojen kanssa. Energialtaan 4 - 16 MeV protonien mitatut jarruuntumiskyvyt poikkesivat noin yhden prosentin tai vähemmän simuloiduista arvoista. Energia-alueella 16 - 20 MeV protonien mitatut jarruuntumiskyvyt olivat noin 4 - 8 % suuremmat kuin ICRU:n antamat simuloidut arvot. Mitattuja arvoja verrattiin my…
