    Abstract : The effect of proton (H+) irradiation on uranium mononitride (UN) and UN compositefuel with 10 at.% ZrN (UN10at%ZrN) was examined. Protons of 2 MeV with fluences of1E17, 1E18, 1E19 and 1E20 ions/cm2 were accelerated towards the fabricated samples in orderto investigate the evolution of the micro-structure. READ MORE

  2. 2. The Channeling Effect in Ultra-Thin dE-E Monolithic Silicon Telescopes

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/Kärnfysik

    Author : Fredrik Parnefjord Gustafsson; [2017]
    Keywords : dead-layer; Channelling; The Channeling effect; Plasma effect; Nucleosynthesis; Astrophysics; Ultra-thin silicon detectors; Inhomogenous Big Bang; MST; deadlayer; Pelletron; 8Li; cross-section; Kikuchi pattern; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : A new method has been proposed to study the low energy resonances of 8Li(alpha,n)11B at Ecm ≅ 0.5 MeV using dE-E Monolithic Silicon Telescopes (MSTs). Each telescope consists of five ultra-thin ∼1 µm (dE) silicon detector pads on a ∼500 µm (E) silicon detector. READ MORE

  3. 3. Channeling of MeV ion beams : Improving sample alignment at the tandem accelerator, Ångström laboratory

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Tillämpad kärnfysik

    Author : Ludvig Svensson Sjöbom; [2014]
    Keywords : rutherford backscattering; RBS; channelling; tandem; accelerator; thin film;

    Abstract : At the Tandem accelerator in the Ångström laboratory, Uppsala, Rutherford backscattering spectrometry (RBS) is one of the methods used for thin film analysis, providing information on thickness and composition. The films are commonly grown on silicon substrates, whose crystal structure gives rise to channelling effects (a strong angular dependence in the intensity of the signal), which can cause faulty results.
