Abstract
An experimental method of measuring backward sputtering induced by fast neu tron is described. Backward sputtering yields of 10 materials of Mg, Al, Sc , V, Fe, Co, Cu, Zr, Au and type 316 stainless steel are measured and compa red with forward sputtering yields. It is found that the ratios of backward to forward sputtering yields depend on the kinds of reactions. The present results are compared with other experimental results and explained using s puttering theory.
