Abstract

Charge-induced X-ray emission (CHIX) has been studied using infinitely thick, non-conducting targets of some fluorides, bombarded with hydrogen and deuterium molecule-ion beams, and α-particles, in the energy range of 500–700 keV, where the PIXE contribution to the X-ray yield was relatively small. Protons and deuterons with effective energies of 250–350 keV were obtained in this way. Continuous bombardment on the same spot in the targets caused significant decreases in the X-ray yields in some cases, as a result of target deterioration.
