N2 - In the present work, the dechanneling of protons in Si [110] is studied combining theoretical Monte-Carlo and phenomenological simulation results in the energy range E p =1.8-2.4 MeV. The applicability of a Gompertz type sigmoidal dechanneling function, with two parameters, k and x c , which represent characteristic dechanneling rate and range, respectively, is examined, yielding the successful reproduction of backscattering spectra of channeled protons along the Si [110] crystal axis. The results are compared to the ones obtained in the past for different beam - crystal orientation combinations and an attempt is made to explain the occurring similarities and discrepancies.
