Ranges of H and D ions in crystalline Si and W were calculated. It is shown, that as the energy of ions increases the depth distribution of ranges splits into two components: one is connected with near-surface scattering, and the other one characterizes channeled particles. A new phenomenon was observed – a stable spatial structure of the channeled part of the beam forms after the beam passes a short distance. As the ions slow down they start to transition into adjacent channels. The spatial structure of channeled ions falls apart near the stopping point of the particles. An experiment which would connect the obtained spatial distribution with angular distribution of emitted particles is proposed.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
