Description: Measurements of the stopping forces for ¹⁴C, ¹⁴N and ¹⁶O ions in Ge and Au, for ¹⁴N and ¹⁹F ions in Ag, as well as for ¹⁹F ions in Au have been made, respectively. A novel technique, reported recently, using PIN diodes coated directly with the stopping medium in a polka dot pattern was used. This provided a set of precise, self-consistent measurements on the same stopping medium. Results show small but significant deviations from SRIM stopping predictions and are also compared to a recently-developed empirical stopping force predictor.
