A simple technique for the determination of the depth distributions of deuterium and tritium in the near-surface region (0-1..mu..m) of materials has been demonstrated. In particular, the depth distribution of deuterium in a layered, deuterided titanium film has been determined by monitoring the HD and D/sub 2/ gas emissions during sputtering by 2 keV argon ions. For the nonoptimized conditions employed the detection sensitivity was D/Ti approximately 0.02 and the fractional depth resolution was approximately 0.24 (i.e., approximately 240A for a 1000A film). Even for these conditions, this technique has a near-surface depth resolution superior, or equal, to that of other techniques for profiling hydrogen and a more than adequate sensitivity for the detection of deuterium and tritium in CTR-related studies, hydride studies, and studies of tritided targets for neutron production.
