Abstract

A method of determination of elemental contents in compound substances has been elaborated. The method is based on the simulation of the energy spectra of elastically scattered ions and recoil nuclei. The simulated spectra are then compared with the measured ones. Effects influencing the spectra, such as bombarding beam energy spread, the energy straggling of ions and the finite resolution of the spectrometer, are accounted for in the algorithm.
