摘要
The gamma ray yield of the B-11(p, gamma)C-12 resonance reaction at 163 keV was applied to depth profiling. This reaction is capable of providing boron concentration versus depth up to more than I mu m in conductive and non-conductive films. To avoid the interferences of reactions of lighter elements, the gamma ray of 11.68 MeV was selected for profiling. Using a numerical method, the interference of the higher resonances was subtracted. Comparison data from the B-11(p, alpha)2 alpha reaction was taken for completeness. Additionally, the profiling capabilities of the B-11(p, gamma)C-12 and B-11(p, alpha(0))Be-8 reaction are compared.
