FERRO, R. et al. A resonant nuclear reaction analysis of fluorine in thin CdO films. Rev. mex. fis. [online]. 2008, vol.54, n.5, pp.364-367. ISSN 0035-001X.

The resonant nuclear reaetion (RNR) teehnique has been used for determining the fluorine content in CdO thin films prepared by spray pyrolysis. The gamma rays observed were from the nuclear reaction ¹⁹F(p,αγ)¹⁶ O, which presents a resonance at 340 keV bombarding energy. From the excitation curves the dependence of the fluorine content in the films on the wt % of NH₄F in the starting solution was observed. In order to understand the doping process, the RNR study was complemented with the other techniques of chemical and electrical analysis such as energy dispersive spectroscopy and the Hall effect.
