ABSTRACTThis paper presents new data on the previously observed porous structures which can be developed in high dose, ion implanted Ge. In addition, we provide strong evidence to suggest that such porous structures can be formed in high dose, ion implanted Si and GaAs substrates under particular implant conditions. Comparison of the various systems using RBS analysis indicates that heavy ion doses as low as 1014 cm−2 can give rise to such structural modifications in GaAs, whereas doses of 1015 cm−2 are needed to observe an effect with Ge and doses usually exceeding 1016cm−2 are required for Si.

AbstractRadiation effects in nonmetals have been studied for well over a century by geologists, mineralogists, physicists, and materials scientists. The present work focuses on recent results of investigations of the ion-beam-induced amorphization of the ABO4 compounds – including the orthophosphates (LnPO4; Ln = lanthanides) and the orthosilicates: zircon (ZrSiO4), hafnon (HfSiO4), and thorite (ThSiO4). In the case of the orthosilicates, heavy-ion irradiation at elevated temperatures causes the precipitation of a nanocrystalline metal oxide. Electron irradiation effects in these amorphized insulating ceramics can produce localized recrystallization on a nanometer scale. Similar electron irradiation techniques were used to nucleate monodispersed compound semiconductor nanocrystals formed by ion implantation of the elemental components into fused silica. Methods for the formation of novel structural relationships between embedded nanocrystals and their hosts have been developed and the results presented here demonstrate the general flexibility of ion implantation and irradiation techniques for producing unique near-surface microstructures in ion-implanted host materials.
