Monte Carlo simulations of backscattered electron coefficients and average penetration depths for Cu, Au, and Al under electron irradiation by Sami Mohammed Alsharari

“…Therefore, a Monte Carlo (MC) simulation was conducted to examine and explore the electron backscattering coefficients and average penetration depths of copper (Cu), gold (Au), and aluminum (Al) when bombarded by energetic electrons with energies ranging from 0 to 60 kilo-electron volts (keV) at normal incidence. The results showed strong agreement with experimental data. …”
