The nitrogen compositions of hafnium nitride (HfN) thin films were evaluated by non-Rutherford backscattering analysis with 2.10 MeV H+. The results were compared with those evaluated by 1.63 MeV H+. The nitrogen compositions showed good agreements. When other heavy elements are added to HfN, nitrogen and heavy elements can be evaluated simultaneously by PIXE at the same time as n-RBS. Improving the sensitivity of PIXE requires a higher energy of H+. It is considered that adopting 2.10 MeV H+ as a projectile ion is better when the evaluation of nitrogen composition is carried out simultaneously with the analysis of heavy metal.
