Abstract
Sputtering of solid neon by keV He+ ions and 13.2 keV electrons has been st udied. We have measured the energy distributions of neon atoms emitted from neon during bombardment by these particles. The ion-induced distributions show features from knockon (elastic) as well as electronic (inelastic) sput tering processes. The electronic components have been identified on the bas is of the distribution from electron impact. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
