K. Kimura et al., HYDROGEN DEPTH PROFILING WITH SUB-NM RESOLUTION IN HIGH-RESOLUTION ERD, Nuclear instruments & methods in physics research. Section B, Beam interactions with materials and atoms, 140(3-4), 1998, pp. 397-401
A depth resolution of 0.28 nm is obtained in a depth profile of hydrog
en in silicon using a newly developed high-resolution elastic recoil d
etection (ERD) system. The system consists of a standard 90 degrees se
ctor magnetic spectrometer (energy resolution similar to 0.1%) for hig
h-resolution measurement and an electrostatic deflector for blocking s
cattered incident ions without disturbing the energy resolution. The s
ystem is very simple as compared with other high-resolution ERD system
s and the data acquisition time is reasonably short. (C) 1998 Elsevier
