ABSTRACTUnder conditions of a vacuum simulation it was investigated how electric rocket thruster (ERT) SPT-70 contaminates space craft (SC) surfaces. The contamination content in the ERT jet was studied by using solid targets. The film composition was analysed by Rutherford backscattering spectroscopy (RBS) He+ ions and nuclear reaction analysis (NRA) with H+ ions methods. Using the results of this analysis a preliminary estimation of the composition and the angular distribution of contaminated components in the ERT jet were carried out.

Nanoporous Silicon

ABSTRACTElectroluminescent nanoporous silicon is investigated by accelerator techniques. Rutherford Backscattering Spectroscopy (RBS) and Nuclear Reaction Analysis (NRA) are used to measure the oxygen content. The stoichiometry is Si1O1.8 in the top layer and Si1O0.8 in 6 μm depth. Channeling experiments show that only very weak channels are present.
