Stopping power for low-velocity heavy ions: (0.01-0.9) MeV/nucleon Si ions in 18 ( Z = 13-79) metals
Abstract
The stopping power for 29Si ions in Al, Ti, V, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, Zr, Nb, Mo, Ag, Hf, Ta, W, Re, Pt and Au has been studied in the energy region (0.01-0.9) MeV/nucleon by application of a technique of nuclear physics, the inverted analysis of Doppler-shift attenuation data. Generally, the measured values are considerably higher at low energies (less than 0.4 MeV/nucleon) and show different energy dependence than the predictions of the commonly used empirical electronic stopping powers by Ziegler, Biersack and Littmark [1] [The Stopping and Ranges of Ions in Matter (Pergamon, New York, 1985) Vol. 1]. The uncertainty of the electronic stopping powers determined is typically ±6%.
