Popis: The recently established neutron depth profiling facility at the 10 MW reactor of the National Bureau of Standards in Gaithersburg, MD is described. The facility uses a 9.5 mm diameter neutron beam filtered through 200 mm of single crystal sapphire to give an intensity of 3 × 10 8 n/s, a cadmium ratio for gold of 10 4 and a gamma dose of only 200 mrad/h. Examples of initial work are: range measurements with boron implanted in silicon; observations on near-surface boron in glass; and boron concentration profiles in thin layers of borophosphosilicate glass.
