Electronic stopping power of various organic compounds for proton (0.05-10MeV)
calculated using different theoretical and semi-empirical formulations has been analysed in
the present investigation. The stopping power values calculated using Ashley's dielectric
model (ADM) with evaluation approach for optical energy loss function (OELF) have been
compared with the values computed using the theoretical formulation CasP (Convolution
approximation for swift Particles) and semi-empirical approach SRIM (Stopping and Range
of Ions in Matter). The merits and demerits of the adopted formulations are highlighted in the
present energy region. These type of stopping power analyses for proton will be helpful for
scientific community to choose best formulation.
