Abstract

Most of the experimental techniques used in this thesis are linked to ion accelerator facilities; in particular, electrostatic ion accelerators delivering ions with energies in the range of 500 keV–50 MeV. In this chapter, a general description of such kind of facilities as well as a succinct picture of the three main facilities where this thesis has been carried out is provided. A more detailed description of the used end-stations is given. A description of the ion beam analysis techniques can be found in Chap. 3, Sect. 3.11.
