Abstract: | This review is dedicated to considering issues of low-energy ion scattering by solid surfaces. In addition to general issues, original results obtained by researchers at the department of physical electronics (Faculty of Physics, Moscow State University) are considered. They have initiated new directions in the study of slow ion scattering. Attention is focused on experimental data and the results of computer simulation. The section dedicated to discussing the charge exchange between the scattered particles and the surface, and nanostructures is an important part of this review. |
