Cu samples were irradiated with 10 MeV Au³⁺ ions at 200 °C to damage levels of 5, 10, and 15 displacements per atom (dpa) as an analogue to study long term self-irradiation effects of alpha- decay in Pu. Samples were then subject to accelerated aging at 350 °C for 1 hour in air resulting in mixed oxide layer growth (Cu₂O and CuO). Raman spectroscopy revealed that the CuO phase fraction was gradually decreased as the damage level increased. These findings indicate that accumulated damage from self-irradiation causes quantifiable modifications in metal oxidation that could serve as a novel forensic signature.
