Abstract
In order to evaluate stopping cross-section and energy straggling of protons in compound material SiC and its constituents C and Si, resonant backscattering spectra have been measured using proton beams in an energy range 4.9-6.1Â MeV per a 100Â keV step. We have observed two sharp nuclear resonances at proton energies of 4.808Â MeV by 12C and 4.879Â MeV by 28Si. By systematic analyses of the resonance peak profiles, i.e., energy shift of the peak position and broadening of the peak width, the values of the stopping cross-section and the energy straggling have been deduced to be compared with SRIM-2006 and Bohr's prediction.
