AB  - Results of the study of oxidised (FeCoZr)(x)(CaF2)(100) (- x) films in a wide composition range (30 LT = x LT = 74 at.%) sintered at oxygen pressures P-O = 43 and 9.8 mPa with X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS), Fe-57 Mossbauer spectroscopy (MS), and vibrating sample magnetometry (VSM) are reported. A crystalline metallic core-amorphous oxide shell structure of nanoparticles (NPs) in films oxidised at lower P-O = 43 mPa is observed in TEM images. A combined use of XRD, MS and XAS techniques provides identification of NP phase composition evidencing alpha-FeCo(Zr) core of the variable content depending on x and a complex oxide shell including amorphous alpha-Fe23+O3 together with Co1 - y2+Fey2+O at low x (30-36 at%). Full oxidation of NPs at higher P-O = 9.8 mPa is indicated by TEM, XRD, MS and XAS patterns evidencing the formation of crystalline Co1 - y2+Fey2+O core-amorphous alpha-Fe23+O3 shell structure. Progressive oxidation of NPs with decreasing x at P-O = 4.3 mPa as well as with Po increase is followed by variation of average centre shifts LT delta GT obtained from deconvoluted Fe-57 Mossbauer spectra. Magnetometry measurements of films sintered at P-O = 43 mPa reveal an effect of exchange bias confirming ferromagnetic metallic core-antiferromagnetic oxide shell structure of NPs. The results show that phase composition of oxide shells is governed both by concentration of oxygen available during synthesis and on the x. Schemes of progressive NP oxidation with identified phase composition as a function of P-o and x values are proposed. (C) 2016 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

AB  - The effects of helium ion irradiation on immiscible AlN/TiN multilayered system were studied. The structure consisted of 30 alternate AlN (similar to 8 nm) and TiN (similar to 9.3 nm) layers of a total thickness around 260 nm, deposited on (100) Si substrates by reactive sputtering. The system was then implanted with 30 keV He+ to very high irradiation doses, 1-4 x 10(17) ions/cm(2). Evaluated projected ion range was 153.1 +/- 45.4 nm and maximum displacements per atom for the applied doses from 6 to 24. It was found that the multilayers remained well separated and stable after irradiation to 1 x 10(17) ions/cm(2), which introduces up to 10 at.% of He within the structure. The main effects were agglomeration of He bubbles around the projected ion range, mostly concentrated at the AlN edges of the interfaces, and a slight increase of the mean grain size within the affected zone. Increasing of the ion dose induced further agglomeration of bubbles, splitting of the layers at the interfaces, and final destruction of the structure. The evaluated He content was consistent with the implanted dose up to 2 x 10(17) ions/cm(2). For the highest dose the implanted gas is partially released from the structure. The results can be interesting towards the development of radiation tolerant materials. (C) 2015 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

AB  - The relation between nanoscale structure, local atomic order and magnetic properties of (FeCoZr)(x)(CaF2)(100-x) (29 LT = x LT = 73 at. %) granular films is studied as a function of metal/insulator fraction ratio. The films of a thickness of 1-6 mu m were deposited on Al-foils and glass-ceramic substrates, by ion sputtering of targets of different metal/insulator contents. Structural characterization with X-ray and electron diffraction as well as transmission electron microscopy revealed that the films are composed of isolated nanocrystalline bcc alpha-FeCo(Zr) alloy and insulating fcc CaF2 matrix. They grow in a columnar structure, where elongated metallic nanograins are arranged on top of each other within the columns almost normal to the substrate surface. Mossbauer spectroscopy and magnetometry results indicate that their easy magnetization axes are oriented at an angle of 65 degrees-74 degrees to the surface in films with x between 46 and 74, above the electrical percolation threshold, which is attributed to the growth-induced shape anisotropy. Interatomic distances characteristic for metallic state of alpha-FeCo(Zr) nanograins were revealed by X-ray Absorption Spectroscopy. The results show a lack of surface oxidation of the alloy nanograins, so the growth-induced orientation of nanograins in the films cannot be attributed to this effect. The study is among the first to report a growth-induced non-planar magnetic anisotropy in metal/insulator granular films above the percolation threshold and to reveal the origin of it.

AB  - The effects of Ar ion irradiation on interfacial reactions induced in Ni/Ti multilayers were investigated. Structures consisting of 10 alternate Ni (similar to 26 nm) and Ti (similar to 20 nm) layers of a total thickness similar to 230 nm were deposited by ion sputtering on Si (1 0 0) wafers. Argon irradiations were done at 180 keV, to the doses of 1-6 x 10(16) ions/cm(2), the samples being held at room temperature. The projected implanted ion range is 86 +/- 36 nm, maximum energy loss is closer to the surface, and maximum displacements per atom (dpa) from 47 to 284 for Ni and 26 to 156 for Ti. Characterizations of samples were performed by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and Rutherford backscattering spectrometry (RBS). It is shown that ion irradiation induced a progressed intermixing in the mostly affected zone already for the lowest dose, the thickness of the mix increasing linearly with the irradiation dose. The mixed phase is fully amorphous, starting with a higher concentration of Ni (which is the diffusing species) from the initial stages, and saturating at Ni: Ti similar to 66:34. A thick amorphous layer (similar to 127 nm) formed towards the surface region of the structure for the irradiation dose of 4 x 10(16) ions/cm(2) remains stable with increasing the dose to 6 x 10(16) ions/cm(2), which introduces up to 6-7 at.% of Ar within the mix. The results are discussed in light of the existing models. They can be interesting for introducing a selective and controlled solid-state reaction and towards further studies of ion irradiation stability of amorphous Ni-Ti phase. (C) 2013 Elsevier B.V.

AB  - Ion implantation and thermal annealing effects on composition and structure of Ni/Ti multilayer have been studied and reported in this paper. The thin films composed of five (Ni/Ti) bilayers were deposited by d.c. ion sputtering on (100) Si wafers to a total thickness of similar to 180 nm. Ion irradiations were performed by 180 keV Ar+ ions with fluence of 6 x 10(16) ions cm(-2). After deposition and implantation, the samples were annealed at 400 degrees C for 30 min in an inert ambient. Composition and structural characterizations were performed by X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Annealing of as-deposited samples at 400 degrees C induces a progressed interaction between Ni and Ti layers with the initial formation of NiTi alloy phase. Progressed alloying was achieved for the ion fluence of 6 x 10(16) ions cm(-2) and the formed structure is composed of NiTi compound, only at depth around the projected ion range. In the deeper layers, beyond the projected range of implanted ions, the diffusion of Ni atoms can lead to solid state amorphization. Subsequent annealing at 400 degrees C for 30 min enabled enhanced interaction between intermixed Ni and Ti layers, and in the layers close to the Si substrate the conditions for the formation of intermetallic compound are created.

abstract = "Ion implantation and thermal annealing effects on composition and structure of Ni/Ti multilayer have been studied and reported in this paper. The thin films composed of five (Ni/Ti) bilayers were deposited by d.c. ion sputtering on (100) Si wafers to a total thickness of similar to 180 nm. Ion irradiations were performed by 180 keV Ar+ ions with fluence of 6 x 10(16) ions cm(-2). After deposition and implantation, the samples were annealed at 400 degrees C for 30 min in an inert ambient. Composition and structural characterizations were performed by X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Annealing of as-deposited samples at 400 degrees C induces a progressed interaction between Ni and Ti layers with the initial formation of NiTi alloy phase. Progressed alloying was achieved for the ion fluence of 6 x 10(16) ions cm(-2) and the formed structure is composed of NiTi compound, only at depth around the projected ion range. In the deeper layers, beyond the projected range of implanted ions, the diffusion of Ni atoms can lead to solid state amorphization. Subsequent annealing at 400 degrees C for 30 min enabled enhanced interaction between intermixed Ni and Ti layers, and in the layers close to the Si substrate the conditions for the formation of intermetallic compound are created.

Irradiation was done with 200 successive pulses, at 1,064-nm wavelength, energy per pulse 15 mJ, the incidence angle of similar to 45 degrees, covering an area of 2-mm in diameter. The samples were analyzed by scanning electron microscopy, atomic force microscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and transmission electron microscopy. It was found that laser irradiation-induced melting and a progressed Al-Ti nanoalloying within the top four bilayers (up to a depth of similar to 150 nm), while the underlying part of the multilayered structure remained intact.

AB  - We investigate a new approach for efficient generation of the lasing G-centre (carbon substitutional-silicon self-interstitial complex) which crucially is fully compatible with standard silicon ultra-large-scale integration technology. Silicon wafers were implanted with carbon and irradiated with high energy protons to produce self-interstitials that are crucial in the formation of the G-centre. Rutherford backscattering spectrometry (RBS) and transmission electron microscopy were used to study the structure of the post-implanted silicon samples and to investigate the behaviour of the self-interstitials and damage introduced by the carbon and proton implantation. The effect of substrate pre-amorphisation on the G-centre luminescence intensity and formation properties was also investigated by implanting Ge prior to the carbon and proton irradiation. Photoluminescence measurements and RBS results show a significantly higher G-centre peak intensity and silicon yield, respectively, in samples without pre-amorphisation.

AB  - The effects of argon ion irradiation on structural changes in Ta/Ti multilayers deposited on Si wafers were investigated. The starting structures consisted of sputter deposited 10 alternate Ta (similar to 23 nm) and Ti (similar to 17 nm) layers of a total thickness similar to 200 nm. They were irradiated at room temperature with 200 key Ar(+), to the fluences from 5 x 10(15) to 2 x 10(16) ions/cm(2). The projected ion range was around mid-depth of the multilayered structure, and maximum displacements per atom similar to 130. It was found that, despite of the relatively heavy ion irradiation, individual nanocrystalline Ta and Ti layers remain unmixed, keeping the same level of interface planarity. The changes observed in the mostly affected region are increase in lateral dimensions of crystal grains in individual layers, and incorporation of bubbles and defects that cause some stretching of the crystal lattice. Absence of interlayer mixing is assigned to Ta-Ti immiscibility (reaction enthalpy Delta H(f) = +2 kJ/mol). It is estimated that up to similar to 5 at.% interface mixing induced directly by collision cascades could be compensated by dynamic demixing due to chemical driving forces in the temperature relaxation regime. The results can be interesting towards developing radiation tolerant materials based on multilayered structures. (C) 2011 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

AB  - Temperature and magnetic field dependences of electrical conductivity are systematically studied in granular films (Fe45Co45Zr10)(x)(Al2O3)(100-x) (28 LT = x LT = 64) containing crystalline metallic alpha-FeCo-based nanoalloy cores encapsulated in an amorphous oxide shell embedded in an amorphous Al2O3 matrix. Formation of metallic core-oxide shell nanogranules is confirmed by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and HRTEM. The structure of core and shell is governed with the difference in the oxidation states of Fe and Co ions investigated with EXAFS, XANES and Mossbauer spectroscopy. A considerable negative magnetoresistance (MR) effect of spin-dependent nature is observed in the whole range of x values. Its increase with decreasing temperature is correlated with the magnetic saturation of superparamagnetic metallic nanogranules. The enhanced MR effect in core-shell granular films is related to the percolation of oxide shells and their influence through spin filtering processes. A considerable high field MR at low temperatures and the resulting deviation of MR and squared magnetization are attributed to a magnetic randomness and/or strong magnetic anisotropy of the magnetic oxide shell.

AB  - Microstructural and electroluminescence measurements are carried out on boron implanted dislocation engineered silicon light emitting diodes (LEDs) co-implanted with the rare earth thulium to provide wavelength tuning in the infra-red. Silicon LEDs operating in the range from 1.1-1.35 mu m are fabricated by co-implantation of boron and thulium into n-type Si (100) wafers and subsequently rapid thermally annealed to activate the implants and to engineer the dislocation loop array that is crucial in allowing light emission. Ohmic contacts are applied to the p and n regions to form conventional p-n junction LEDs. Electroluminescence is obtained under normal forward biasing of the devices. The influence of implantation sequence (B or Tm first), ion dose, and the post-implantation annealing on the microstructure and electroluminescence from the devices is studied. A clear role of the heavy-ion Tm co-implant in significantly modifying the boron induced dislocation loop array distribution is demonstrated. We also identify the development of dislocation loops under thermal spikes upon heavy ion (Tm) implantation into Si. The results contribute to a better understanding of the basic processes involved in fabrication and functioning of co-implanted devices, toward achieving higher light emission efficiency.
