The cross section for the combined 2D(15N,p)16N and 2D(15N,nγ)16O nuclear reactions of deuterium (2D) with incident 15N ions is evaluated and found to increase by two orders of magnitude between 3.3 and 7.0 MeV. Detecting the γ-rays at 6.1 and 7.1 MeV from these reactions allows quantifying the depth-integrated 2D content in materials in parallel with nanometer-resolved quantitative hydrogen (1H) depth profiling in surface layers through resonant 1H(15N,αγ)12C nuclear reaction analysis (NRA) using 15N ion beams. The information depth and sensitivity of 15N-2D NRA is estimated through energy loss simulations of the 15N projectiles in the analyzed material. Good agreement of the integral 2D quantitation through 2D(15N,p)16N and 2D(15N,nγ)16O NRA with 2D depth profiles obtained independently via 2D(3He,p)4He NRA is demonstrated at the example of 2D plasma-exposed tungsten samples. The simultaneous quantitation of 2D and depth-resolved 1H profiling with a single 15N ion beam promises application potential to investigate hydrogen-isotope exchange and diffusion processes in surface and thin buried layers.

15 N- 2 D核反应的横截面,从3.3到7.0 MeV,用于同时用15 N离子束对表层中的氢和氘进行定量

评价了氘(2 D)与入射15 N离子的合并2 D(15 N,p)16 N和2 D(15 N,nγ)16 O核反应的横截面,发现增加了两个数量级幅度介于3.3和7.0 MeV之间。通过这些反应检测6.1和7.1 MeV的γ射线,可以量化材料中的深度积分2 D含量,同时通过共振1 H(15 N,αγ )与表面层中的纳米级定量氢(1 H)深度轮廓平行)12 C核反应分析(NRA)使用15 N离子束。15 N- 2 D NRA的信息深度和灵敏度是通过对所分析材料中15 N弹丸的能量损失模拟来估算的。通过2 D(15 N,p)16 N和2 D(15 N,nγ)16 O NRA进行的积分2 D定量分析具有良好的一致性,并通过2 D(3 He,p)4 He NRA独立获得了2 D深度剖面证明在该实施例2 d暴露于等离子体的钨样品。同时定量2用单个15 N离子束进行D和深度解析的1 H轮廓分析,有望在表面和薄埋层中研究氢-同位素交换和扩散过程具有应用潜力。
