摘要
The cross section for 167-degrees backscattering of He-4 from N-14 in the energy range from 4.5 to 9.0 MeV was measured. The targets were made by evaporating 500 angstrom of zirconium on a carbon substrate and implanting with 1.3 x 10(17) N2/cm2 at 33 keV. A large scattering resonance, approximately 80 times Rutherford and FWHM > 200 keV, was found at 8.81 MeV. Titanium samples were irradiated using pulsed excimer laser radiation at 248 nm in nitrogen gas at 1 atm. The nitrogen content was measured using the N-14 alpha scattering resonance at 8.81 MeV. For fluences greater than 500 J/cm2, concentrations of nitrogen approaching that of TiN were observed. The thickness of the nitride layer is on the order of 0.35 mum.
