Characteristics of heavy ion scattering by the surface of a single crystal of complex composition
Abstract
The characteristics of the low-angle multiple scattering of heavy ions of medium energies by the single-crystal surface of YBa2Cu3O(7-x) ceramic were investigated by using a computer simulation. The possibilities afforded by the ion scattering method for the diagnostics and monitoring of the local composition, structure, and condition of the surfaces of complex compounds are demonstrated.
