Description
The sensitivity obtained in Ion Beam Analysis is dependent on the element being profiled and the technique used. Nitrogen may be profiled by either Rutherford Backscattering (RBS) or Nuclear Reaction Analysis (NRA). A comparison of the two methods has been made for both 14N and 15N. The NRA technique is considerably more sensitive, but involves the use of deuteron beams in the case of 14N and is only applicable in the case of 15N when the separated isotope is used, as its natural abundance (0.36%) is too low
