Abstract :
A quadratic model is presented whereby the depth-dependent lateral variance of ions implanted into amorphous targets may be estimated from a knowledge of the first seven moments of the distribution. The authors compare their results, and those derived using a perturbation approach of Lorenz et al., (1989) against high resolution Monte-Carlo data.
