17 Ion implantation: alternative approach Interaction of the medium light elements with the material Surface Damage Substrate Surface damage due to the electronic energy loss ions End of range damage due to the nuclear energy loss Waveguide End Of Range Damage
18 Ion implantation of medium light elements High implant fluences of medium light elements increase the surface damage Higher damage with increasing atomic number of the implanted species Questions 1. Origin of the surface damage 2. Dependence of the surface; damage on the implantation conditions.
19 Ion Implantation: i) The energy lost by electronic interaction mostly generates localised colour centres and/or few structural isolated defects. These defects can be easily annealed at lower temperatures than the more complex defect clusters generated at the End-of-Range by nuclear interaction. ii) This is a general trend rather independent of the target material. iii) The energy lost by Nuclear interaction, generates collision cascades and large defect clusters.
