Abstract
The uniformity of phosphorus concentration produced by nuclear transmutation and the distribution of other elements such as gold have been studied to observe the possible influence of the neutron flux at a microscopic level in neutron irradiated silicon. Two techniques were used : i) electrochemical sectioning and ii) mechanical sectioning. Both methods show that the phosphorus concentration is uniform throughout. Gold, on the other hand, is concentrated at the surfaceKeywords
