Abstract
The response of the thin film detector (TFD) to transiting light ions ( Z=1, 2) and fully stopped light and heavy ions ( Z=1, 2, 7, 8) is reported. Response features distinct to these ions are described for various thin film thickness as a function of incident ion energy and velocity. The TFD response is shown to depend predominantly on two factors, namely, the velocity and atomic number Z of the transiting ion. The specific luminescence recorded as a function of specific energy loss is in conflict with previously reported work near maximum d E/d x values. The new trend observed suggests the double-valued nature of specific luminescence when plotted vs specific energy loss. The Z dependence of the luminescence saturation effect is confirmed.
