10 – Surface Analysis Methods for Contaminant Identification
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a comparison of surface analysis methods for sub-monolayer contaminant analysis, including low energy ion scattering (LEIS), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry (TOF-SIMS), and AES.

Biaxially textured Ag films by grazing ion beam assisted deposition
TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of grazing incidence 4-keV Ar+ ion irradiation on the early stage of Ag thin film growth on amorphous Si was investigated, and the double effect of axial and surface channeling resulted in grains oriented along the 〈110〉 axis in-plane, while the (111) out-of-plane texture was maintained.

Evaluation of interatomic potentials for noble gas atoms from rainbow scattering under axial channeling at Ag(1 1 1) surface by computer simulations based on binary collision approximation
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors evaluated the dependence of rainbow angles on normal energy of projectile energy to the target surface that has been experimentally obtained by Schuller and Winter (SW) (2007) for RS of He, Ne and Ar atoms from a Ag(1.1) surface with projectile energies of 3-60 keV.

Ab initio interatomic potentials for low-energy He ion/atom scattering
TL;DR: In this paper, the density functional theory (DFT) binary interatomic potentials have been calculated for low-energy He projectile interactions with target atoms having atomic numbers (Z 2) from 6 to 54 (C to Xe).

The theory of atomic collisions
TL;DR: The perturbation theory has been applied to many-body problems and applications, such as electron collisions with atoms, collisions between atomic systems, nuclear collisions, and certain aspects of two-body systems under relativistic collisions.
