In situ TEM ion irradiation and implantation effects on Au nanoparticle morphologies.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Energetic heavy and light ion effects on gold nanoparticles were probed by irradiating 20 and 60 nm diameter nanoparticles with either 3 MeV Cu(3+) or 10 keV He(+) ions in situ inside of a transmission electron microscope. Both ion species caused sintering, agglomeration, and ablation of the nanoparticles via sputtering, although at different rates.

In Situ TEM Multi-Beam Ion Irradiation as a Technique for Elucidating Synergistic Radiation Effects
Materials designed for nuclear reactors undergo microstructural changes resulting from a combination of several environmental factors, including neutron irradiation damage, gas accumulation and elevated temperatures. Typical ion beam irradiation experiments designed for simulating a neutron irradiation environment involve irradiating the sample with a single ion beam and subsequent characteriza...
متن کاملThe Design and Implementation of a Single, Double, and Triple Concurrent Beam In Situ Ion Irradiation TEM Facility
The study of irradiation-induced defects on the nanoscale is crucial for a fundamental understanding of displacement and implantation damage in various microstructures. Ion irradiation performed in situ inside of a TEM is a unique tool allowing direct observation of defect evolution on nanometer length scales in real time [1]. Most facilities use a single ion beam, but in many real radiation en...
متن کامل2 8 Fe b 20 05 Energy dependent sputtering of nano - clusters from a nanodisperse target and embedding of nanoparticles into a substrate
Au nanoparticles, prepared by thermal evaporation under high vacuum condition on Si substrate, are irradiated with Au ions at different ion energies. During ion irradiation, embedding of nanoparticles as well as ejection of nano-clusters is observed. Ejected particles (usually smaller than those on the Si substrate) due to sputtering are collected on carbon-coated transmission electron microsco...
متن کاملMeV ion-induced strain at nanoisland-semiconductor surface and interfaces
Strain at surfaces and interfaces play an important role in the optical and electronic properties of materials. MeV ion-induced strain determination in single crystal silicon substrates and in Ag (nanoisland)/Si(111) at surface and interfaces has been carried out using transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and surface-sensitive X-ray diffraction. Ag nanoislands are grown under various surface ...
متن کاملAn In-situ Tem Study of the Effects of 6 Kev He Ion Irradiation on Si and Sio 2
Using the new MIAMI facility at the University of Huddersfield, an in-situ TEM study has been carried out on the effects of helium implantation on a tri-layer system consisting of monocrystalline silicon (c-Si), silicon dioxide (SiO2) and polycrystalline silicon (poly-Si). Co-irradiation of these three components enabled direct comparisons to be made of differences between the response of c-Si ...
