Scattered-ion energy ratio

{
  "id": "MLC-T-CHM-010558",
  "term": "Scattered-ion energy ratio",
  "field": "Chemistry",
  "definition": "The ratio of the kinetic energy of a scattered ion to the kinetic energy of the incident primary ion. This ratio is a function of the masses of the incident ion and the target atom, as well as the scattering angle. It is a fundamental parameter in ion scattering spectrometry for identifying surface elements.",
