Abstract
A simple method to directly determine the nuclear microprobe beam prof ile is described. Whereas the accuracy of the method can be drasticall y reduced by the alignment of the test specimen, secondary electron em ission was used to determine the precise specimen orientation. The res ulting technique was used for both accurate beam size and profile dete rminations. (C) 1997 Elsevier Science B.V.
