Abstract
Prompt radiation analysis provides good quantitative information with regard to the presence of light elements within the first few μm of a materials surface. To provide a much greater insight into the distribution of elements within this depth range, a FORTRAN code has been written to simulate the energy spectrum of particles emitted during ion beam bombardment of a given target. Any particle/nucleus interaction may be studied provided that the relevant reaction cross-section data is availabl. The program has been applied in the analysis of 12C(d,p) spectra obtained from samples of steel, containing diffused carbon, evaluation of the 14N(d,p 0) cross-section, and to profile carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, and sulphur, to a depth of 2 μm, in the corrosion film of a steel die.
