Abstract
A direct method for the determination of the depth profile of implante d polarized probes is described. It has been applied to measure the de pth profile of B-12 nuclei implanted at an atomic concentration of 10( -16) in polycrystalline gold. The results prove the ability of this me thod to measure the depth distribution of implanted nuclei with an unk nown energy distribution, which is typical for a polarized beam emergi ng from a succession of nuclear reactions or electromagnetic interacti ons.
