The non-RBS cross sections needed in the CORTEO code are taken from the ENDF/B-Ⅶ database and the calculations of SigmaCalc code and are incorporated into the CORTEO code. All non-RBS cross section data over the entire proton incident energy-scattering angle plane are obtained by interpolation. It is quantitatively observed that in EPBS analysis the multiple and plural scattering effects have little impact on the energy spectra for light elements and the RBS cross sections of light elements can be used in the SIMNRA code for dual scattering calculations. It is also observed that the results given by the CORTEO code are higher than the results of the SIMNRA code in the low energy part of EPBS spectra, and are in better agreement with the experimental data. Tritium and helium analyses in thin film samples using EPBS can be performed reliably when the multiple and plural scattering contributions are completely accounted.展开更多
