Abstract

Results of Auger electron spectroscopy (AES) investigations of boron nitride whiskers produced in optical furnace without catalysts as well boron and initial h-BN for comparison are presented. The Auger process was initiated by exposing the sample to a beam of high energy electrons 3 keV.
