  • Abstract
    In the paper we consider how the Rutherford scattering of high-energy (MeV) light ions can be used as a nondestructive technique for studying thin films on semiconductor surfaces. A number of examples are discussed which illustrate the potential and limitations of the technique for studying semiconductordevice structures.
