Abstract
Charge-induced X-ray emission (CHIX) has been studied using infinitely thick, nonconducting targets of some fluorides, bombarded with hydrog en and deuterium molecule-ion beams, and alpha-particles, in the energ y range of 500-700 keV, where the PIXE contribution to the X-ray yield was relatively small. Protons and deuterons with effective energies o f 250-350 keV were obtained in this way. Continuous bombardment on the same spot in the targets caused significant decreases in the X-ray yi elds in some cases, as a result of target deterioration.
