“…RNRA gives good depth resolution but only for one element at a time. Quantitative analysis and depth profiling of nitrogen are usually performed by non-resonant nuclear reaction analysis ͑NRA͒ induced by deuterons or 3 He particles. Although the cross-sections for ͑d , p͒ and ͑d , ␣͒ reactions on light elements are usually higher than those for the ͑ 3 He , ␣͒ or ͑ 3 He , p͒ reactions, deuterons produce an important flux of neutrons and many laboratories are not allowed to accelerate deuterons.…”

An alternative solution to analyze nitrogen can be the nuclear reactions induced by 3 He particles. The cross-sections of the 14 N͑ 3 He , p͒ 16 O and 14 N͑ 3 He , ␣͒ 13 N reactions were measured precisely for the first time 15 years ago 1 at different angles and for energies between 1.6 and 2.8 MeV.…”

It is worth mentioning that reactions induced by 3 He particles at the same energy produce 100 times fewer neutrons than ͑d , p͒ or ͑d , ␣͒ reactions. They are also more sensitive to the near surface since the stopping power is higher for 3 He than for deuterons of the same energy.…”

The cross-section of the N14(α,p0)O17 reaction at angles of 90°, 135°, and 165° was measured for incident energies between 3.5 and 6.0 MeV simultaneously with the cross-section of the N14(α,α)N14 reaction at 165°. Interference between these two reactions at the angle of 165° and around 3.9 MeV was taken into account. The technique used is very powerful, thanks to the Ta450 nm/C target being implanted with a high dose of nitrogen. The N14(α,p0)O17 reaction exhibits some resonances allowing traces of nitrogen to be quantified. This reaction also offers an alternative to the N14(d,α)C12 and N14(H3e,p)O16 nuclear reactions for profiling nitrogen in the first few microns below the surface. Moreover, by using α-particles, Rutherford backscattering spectroscopy can be performed simultaneously with a good mass resolution to depth profile high Z elements in the sample. The sensitivity of these reactions (0.1%) has been tested by measuring the nitrogen traces in a titanium oxide film deposited on silicon. Depth profiling of nitrogen in a TiN layer on a silicon substrate was also performed. In addition, we publish for the first time some cross-sections values for the N14(α,p1)O17 reaction at 90° and 165°; this measurement is a challenging task.

The differential cross sections for elastic scattering of deuterons from l 6 0 have been measured in the Ed = 1.0. -. 2.5 MeV region at eight scattering angles. Resonances were observed at Ed = 1.00, 1.80 and 2.45 MeV, corresponding to the excited states in I8F at 8. 40, 9.11 and 9.69 MeV. Analysis of the data in terms of the single-level approximation leads to the assignments I" = 1+, 3+ and 2+, respectively. Reduced partial widths for elastic scattering were determined.
