Motivation

  • PIXE can be used to detect elements (Na-U),

RBS to detect all elements heavier than the projectile ions.

  • PIXE is sensitive at the ppm level for most
  • elements. RBS is suitable for profiling.
  • The

necessity

  • f

a powerful analytical technique to characterize the elemental content (simultaneous identification & quantification)

  • f

fine and coarse air particulates.

PIXE-RBS Beamline Development

  • Modification of the collision chamber of PIXE

beamline to combine PIXE & RBS simultaneously.

  • Installation of Si (Li) X-ray detector and Gupix

software package (funded by the IAEA).

  • Improving vacuum in the collision chamber.

PIXE-RBS Beamline Applications

  • Material analysis (stoichiometry
  • f thin

layers).

  • Environmental studies (analysis of aerosols

accumulated on filters).

  • RBS & PIXE are non-destructive techniques to study

materials.

  • PIXE-RBS combination allows the determination of

depth distribution and concentration from hydrogen to heavy elements.

  • PIXE-RBS

combination gives complementary information in aerosols analysis.
