摘要
Experiments were performed to investigate the usefulness of proton beams under glancing angles incident on samples for surface analysis. It was observed that for incident angles in the order of a few mrad, the X-ray yield caused by proton induced X-ray emission (PIXE) increases more than could be explained by geometrical factors. An explanation is proposed including a mechanism in which protons are totally reflected from the surface, analogous to the well-known total reflection X-ray fluorescence (TXRF), where X-rays incident below the critical angle are used to increase peak to background ratios for surface analysis.
