Ion bombardment damage in α-quartz at 50–295 K
Abstract
Backscattering/channeling measurements have been used to analyse the damage produced in single crystals of α-quartz bombarded with 15–120 keV Ne+, Ar+, Kr+, Sb+ and Bi+ ions at 50 and 295 K. Damage production rates of up to 20 times those predicted by linear cascade theory have been observed. The damage versus dose (φ) behaviour is determined and related to the average cascade energy density, θν, and average fractional damage, FD, occurring …
