Va. Didik et al., Distribution of the isotopes produced in the YBa2Cu3O7-x superconductor and PbZr0.54Ti0.46O3 ferroelectric by energetic charged particles, PHYS SOL ST, 40(12), 1998, pp. 1985-1988
A study has been made of the concentration profiles of radioactive isotopes
produced by transmutation in the YBa2Cu3O7-x superconductor and PbZr0.54Ti
0.46O3 ferroelectric by energetic protons (10 and 15 MeV), deuterons (4 MeV
), and He-3 and He-4 nuclei (20 MeV). Profiles of two types have been obser
ved: monotonic and with a maximum. It is shown that the type of isotope con
centration profile is determined by the nature of the cross-section energy
dependence of the nuclear reaction producing a given isotope. (C) 1998 Amer
