  14. Nuclear Reactions

  15. Nuclear Reactions • Chargedparticleinducedreactions : NRANuclearReactionAnalysis • Interaction isinelastic: internalenergyneeds to beincluded in the kinematics. • NRA is isotope-sensitive (residual nucleus in ground state) (residual nucleus in nth excited state, of energy En)

  16. E.g. (d,p) reactions on light nuclei NRA Kinematics qlab=150°, Ed=1.4 MeV, mylar foil 12mm stops 0.9 MeV 2H 2.8 MeV 4He

Growth of SiCnanocrystals at the SiO2/SiC interface 13C180 • Silicon with thermally grown SiO2 • 1100°C annealing under CO • Quartz furnace • The use of 13C18O allows us to : • observe the fate of C onlyfrom CO (13C) withoutbeingconcernedwith C contamination • quantitativelydetermine the fate of 18O from the CO (Si16O2matrix) SiO2 SiO2 SiC Moiré pattern Si Si Epitaxial 3C - SiC Cross sectional TEM image of a (100) Si/SiO2 system annealed in 100% CO at 1 Bar at 1100oC for 2hrs

  26. Ratio of O to C incorporated in the interface region 90 min, 1100°C We can now confidently conclude that for each C atom incorporated in a SiC nano-crystal, an oxygen atom is incorprated in the SiO2/Si interfacial region.
