Resumen:
Thin Be targets for neutron production through Be(d,n) are produced and characterized. We improved andcharacterized the substrate surface, specifically the roughness, in order to achieve homogeneous and stabledeposits.Once well bonded deposits were obtained, some of them were irradiated with a 150 keV proton beam andwith a 1.45 MeV deuteron beam. Both deposits, pristine and irradiated, were characterized by profilometry,X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy and electron probe microanalyzer.
