Incubation Dose for Ion Beam Induced Anisotropic Growth of Amorphous Alloys: Insight into Amorphous State Modifications

Incubation dose for ion beam induced anisotropic growth of amorphous alloys: insight into amorphous state modifications

Under energetic ion bombardment, amorphous materials deform plastically in the form of anisotropic growth. At medium electronic stopping power (5 to 30 keV/nm) this phenomenon starts only after a certain incubation dose depending on values of the electronic stopping power and temperature. This delay is modeled on the basis of the assumption of a drastic irradiation induced viscosity reduction, ...

Deposition of amorphous silicon alloys

Hydrogenated amorphous silicon alloys of carbon and germanium can be deposited by glow-discharge decomposition of gaseous hydrides or fluorides. Non-plasma methods such as photochemical vapour deposition are also used and offer guidelines for understanding and improving the standard glow-discharge method. These amorphous alloys usually have poorer structural and electronic properties than pure ...

The Study of Ion Adsorption by Amorphous Blast Furnace Slag

In this study, the blast furnace slag was used as absorbing bed and then, its ionic adsorption was studied. For this reason, various experimental parameters such as pH, contact time and the primary ion concentration were investigated. The remaining concentrations of ions such as; Mn2+ and Fe2+ in water were measured by atomic adsorption spectroscopy. The chemical and p...
