Title: Latent Tracks in Ion-Irradiated LiTaO₃ Crystals: Damage Morphology Characterization and Thermal Spike Analysis

Abstract

Systematic research on the response of crystal materials to the deposition of irradiation energy to electrons and atomic nuclei has attracted considerable attention since it is fundamental to understanding the behavior of various materials in natural and manmade radiation environments. This work examines and compares track formation in LiTaO3 induced by separate and combined effects of electronic excitation and nuclear collision. Under 0.71–6.17 MeV/u ion irradiation with electronic energy loss ranging from 6.0 to 13.8 keV/nm, the track damage morphologies evolve from discontinuous to continuous cylindrical zone. Based on the irradiation energy deposited via electronic energy loss, the subsequently induced energy exchange and temperature evolution processes in electron and lattice subsystems are calculated through the inelastic thermal spike model, demonstrating the formation of track damage and relevant thresholds of lattice energy and temperature. Combined with a disorder accumulation model, the damage accumulation in LiTaO3 produced by nuclear energy loss is also experimentally determined. The damage characterizations and inelastic thermal spike calculations further demonstrate that compared to damage-free LiTaO3, nuclear-collision-damaged LiTaO3 presents a more intense thermal spike response to electronic energy loss owing to the decrease in thermal conductivity and increase in electron–phonon coupling, which further enhance track damage.

Electronic energy loss and ion velocity correlation effects in track production in swift-ion-irradiated LiNbO3: A quantitative assessment between structural damage morphology and energy deposition

Journal Article Han, Xinqing ; Huang, Qing ; Crespillo, Miguel L. ; ... - Journal of Materials Science and Technology

The primary motivation for studying how irradiation modifies the structures and properties of solid materials involves the understanding of undesirable phenomena, including irradiation-induced degradation of components in nuclear reactors and space exploration, and beneficial applications, including material performance tailoring through ion beam modification and defect engineering. In this work, the formation mechanism of latent tracks with different damage morphologies in LiNbO₃ crystals under 0.09–6.17 MeV/u ion irradiation with an electronic energy loss from 2.6–13.2 keV/nm is analyzed by experimental characterizations and numerical calculations. Irradiation-induced damage is preliminarily evaluated via the prism coupling technique to analyze the correlation between the dark-modemore »« less

A deeper understanding of the intrinsic link between the irradiation-induced microstructures and the corresponding spectroscopic properties is becoming increasingly attractive for the research fields of materials science, physics, and information technology. In this work, the structural damage response, spectroscopic features, and associated physical mechanisms of SrTiO₃ single crystals under swift heavy ion irradiation were comparatively analyzed using a combination of experimental and theoretical approaches. Corresponding to 0.11–5.00 MeV/u ion irradiation with electronic energy loss ranging from 4.0 to 29.3 keV/nm, the inelastic thermal spike calculations combined with molecular dynamics simulations are compared with the experimental observations, revealing the track finemore »« less

A coupled effect of nuclear and electronic energy loss on ion irradiation damage in lithium niobate

Journal Article Liu, Peng ; Zhang, Yanwen ; Xue, Haizhou ; ... - Acta Materialia

Understanding irradiation effects induced by elastic energy loss to atomic nuclei and inelastic energy loss to electrons in a crystal, as well as the coupled effect between them, is a scientific challenge. Damage evolution in LiNbO₃ irradiated by 0.9 and 21 MeV Si ions at 300 K has been studied utilizing Rutherford backscattering spectrometry in channeling mode. During the low-energy ion irradiation process, damage accumulation produced due to elastic collisions is described utilizing a disorder accumulation model. Moreover, low electronic energy loss is shown to induce observable damage that increases with ion fluence. For the same electronic energy loss, themore »« less

Structural damage response of lanthanum and yttrium aluminate crystals to nuclear collisions and electronic excitation: Threshold assessment of irradiation damage

Journal Article Liu, Yong ; Han, Xinqing ; Huang, Qing ; ... - Journal of Materials Science and Technology

A comparative analysis is performed on the structural damage response and associated mechanisms in lanthanum aluminate and yttrium aluminate crystals under various irradiation conditions by a combination of experimental and theoretical approaches. Under low-energy Au+ irradiation, the damage accumulation curve shows a higher damage rate for LaAlO₃ crystals than YAlO₃ crystals. The relatively low irradiation tolerance of LaAlO₃ to the action of nuclear collisions is ascribed to the large amorphization cross-section and effective cross-section for defect-stimulated amorphization. Under swift Ar¹²⁺, Ni¹⁹⁺ and Kr¹⁷⁺ irradiation with different ion energies and velocities, the formed highly-disordered/amorphous latent tracks with different morphologies in pristinemore »« less

Swift heavy ion irradiation of InP: Thermal spike modeling of track formation

Journal Article Kamarou, A ; Wesch, W ; Wendler, E ; ... - Physical Review. B, Condensed Matter and Materials Physics

Irradiation of single-crystalline InP with swift heavy ions (SHI's) causes the formation of ion tracks for certain irradiation temperatures if the electronic energy deposition exceeds a threshold value. With increasing SHI fluence, more and more ion tracks are formed, until a continuous amorphous layer is produced due to the multiple overlapping of the tracks at high ion fluences. Single-crystalline InP samples were irradiated either at liquid nitrogen temperature (LNT) or at room temperature (RT) with Kr, Xe, or Au ions with specific energies ranging from ca. 0.3 to 3.0 MeV/u. Afterwards, the samples were investigated by means of Rutherford backscatteringmore »« less
