Analysis using MeV ion beams is a thin film characterisation technique invented some 50
years ago which has recently had the benefit of a number of important advances. This …

Accurate knowledge about the energy loss of ions in matter is essential in many problems,
ranging from fundamental to applied nuclear physics. Indeed, there is a recent and …

Stopping power and energy loss straggling data for protons (1H+) and alpha particles
(4He+) crossing Formvar thin polymeric foils (thickness of∼ 0.3 μm) have been measured in …

The stopping powers of thin Al foils for H+ and 4 He+ ions have been measured over the
energy range E=(206.03–2680.05) keV/amu with an overall relative uncertainty better than …

The energy loss and energy loss straggling widths have been measured in transmission for
E p≈(0.9–3.4) MeV protons traversing a thin kapton polyimide foil. In a prior step, the …

The energy losses of∼(0.273–3.334) MeV protons in LiF thin films deposited by vacuum
evaporation onto self-supporting Al foils have been measured using the transmission …

BS (elastic backscattering spectrometry, either RBS or EBS) using MeV beams is used to
obtain elemental depth profiles of thin films up to∼ 10 mm thick. Depth resolution degrades …

Abstract Energy loss distributions for (0.5< E p< 2.0) MeV protons traversing polyvinyl formal
have been measured in transmission. Then, they have been analyzed in order to determine …

The phenomenon of energy loss that occurs when an ion interacts with matter, also called
stopping power, has been investigated for more than a century, and has provided findings of …

Résumé Les mesures du pouvoir d'arrêt et du straggling des ions dans des matériaux de
différentes natures connaissent un regain d'intérêt croissant. C'est au regard de cette …
