Description

The resonant nuclear reaction 1H(15N,αγ)12C at resonance energy E(15N2+) = 6.40 MeV has been used to investigate the hydrogen concentration in silicon nitride films. This method is very suitable to determine hydrogen concentration profiles with a good depth resolution (approx. 5 nm) over a large depth (approx. 2 μm) and has a sensitivity of a few tenth of an atomic percent.
