Ions with energies larger than 100 keV/amu produce high densities of electronic excitations in narrow cylindrical volumes around their path. The perturbation of the electronic system is transferred to the atomic network, leading to structural transformations such as the nucleation of metal particles
Ge nanocrystals (NCs) grown by ion implantation in amorphous silica matrices were irradiated with 5 MeV Si ions over a different fluence range (2 Γ 10 11 -2 Γ 10 13 cm Γ2 ) than previously reported. Size and depth distributions as well as structural disorder in the NCs were measured by RBS, TEM, SAX
Aqueous solutions of 10 and 20 wt% hydroxypropylmethylcellulose (HPMC) were irradiated with different doses to make gel films. The gel fraction of the film increased sharply above a critical dose upon increase of the dose and then decreased gradually after passing a maximum. The scission/cross-linki
