Magnesium aluminate spinel (MgAl{sub 2}O{sub 4}) is a candidate material for specialized applications in proposed fusion reactors, and previously, has been irradiated with Al{sup +} or Mg{sup +} ions to assess the effects of high-dose irradiation. Electron energy-loss spectrometry (EELS) has been used to confirm the identity of metallic aluminum colloids located in the ion-implanted region of the spinel because electron diffraction experiments were inconclusive for phase identification. In the present study, energy-filtered plasmon images of the ion-implanted region have been obtained to reveal this colloid distribution.
