Changes in metal nanoparticle shape and size induced by swift heavy-ion irradiation
Changes in the shape and size of Co, Pt and Au nanoparticles induced by swift heavy-ion irradiation (SHII) have been characterized using a combination of transmission electron microscopy, small-angle x-ray scattering and x-ray absorption near-edge structure. Elemental nanoparticles of diameters 2-15 nm were first formed in amorphous SiO 2 by ion implantation and thermal annealing and then irrad...

متن کاملMechanical degradation of polyimide induced by swift heavy ion irradiation
In the new superconducting FAIR magnets, polyimide films (Kapton) will be used as insulator. During operation, the material is exposed to high-dose radiation and it has to withstand enormous mechanical forces induced by the magnet field ramping. For better lifetime estimation, this study investigates radiation-induced degradation of the mechanical properties of Kapton by tensile strength measur...
متن کاملRole of thermodynamics in the shape transformation of embedded metal nanoparticles induced by swift heavy-ion irradiation.
Swift heavy-ion irradiation of elemental metal nanoparticles (NPs) embedded in amorphous SiO(2) induces a spherical to rodlike shape transformation with the direction of NP elongation aligned to that of the incident ion. Large, once-spherical NPs become progressively more rodlike while small NPs below a critical diameter do not elongate but dissolve in the matrix. We examine this shape transfor...
متن کاملSwift heavy-ion irradiation-induced shape and structural transformation in cobalt nanoparticles
The shape and structural evolution of Co nanoparticles embedded in SiO2 and subjected to swift heavy-ion irradiation have been investigated over a wide energy and fluence range. Modifications of the nanoparticle size and shape were characterized with transmission electron microscopy and small-angle x-ray scattering. Nanoparticles below a threshold diameter remained spherical in shape and progre...
