AbstractSingle crystal samples of (100) oriented yttria stabilized cubic zirconia are implanted with Pt ions to doses up to 6x1017 /cm2. Our previous studies showed that the retained Pt dose was too small due to the sputter limit. To overcome this problem, a C film was deposited on the surface of some samples before implantation. The implanted samples were annealed isothermally in air at 400°-1200°C, and were analysed with RBS-C and TEM. The C-layer has been found to be very effective for protecting the sample surface from sputtering and thus increasing the Pt concentration by a factor of two, up to 33 mol.% Pt. The as-implanted Pt was non-substitutional. After annealing at 1200°C for 1 h, Pt diffused to large depths, and showed a substitutional fraction of about 23%. The detailed TEM measurements on the microstructure and damage of the implanted layer show that after annealing at these temperatures the recovery of ion damage is incomplete. Pt atoms undergo substantial migration concurrently. The Pt at first dissolves in the matrix (though not substitutionally), diffuses and precipitates again at high temperature.

AbstractA single-crystal high-temperature X-ray camera has been built with permissible operating temperatures of 2500°C. The camera is constructed to rest upon a Siemens horizontal diffractometer and may be used with either an external electronic detector or with film. The sample is supported on an externally adjustable goniometer head and is heated from the back by an ion beam. Controlled oscillation allows rotation photographs to be obtained from the sample surface not touched by the ion stream. Temperature is controlled by a thermocouple supporting the sample, the thermocouple being an intrinsic part of the goniometer. As a design limit, zero and first order layer lines with iron Kα. radiation on specimens with lattice parameters of 2.6 Å or larger may be recorded. Copper, cobalt, and molybdenum radiation allow even greater latitude. Types of samples that may be studied include powder (pellet), single crystal, wire, or rod. The camera serves equally well for single-crystal, texture, or powder studies on refractory materials.

AbstractThe epitaxial separation of single-crystal magnetic and ferroelectric oxide films is presented. Ion implantation is used to create a buried damage layer beneath the surface. The high etch-selectivity of this sacrificial layer makes it possible to detach high quality single-crystal films from bulk samples. Magnetic and electrical properties of the films are discussed.

ABSTRACTLayer transfer of thin BaTiO3 films onto silicon-based substrates has been investigated. H+ and He+ ion implantation created a buried sacrificial layer in the BaTiO3 single crystals. Thermodynamics and kinetics of cavity nucleation and growth at the bonding interface have been investigated and single crystal thin film layers were transferred onto amorphous Si3N4 and Pt substrates. We have found that defects generated by ion implantation in ferroelectric materials can be significantly recovered with the subsequent annealing for layer splitting. Also, after high dose ion implantation, the films remain single crystal and stoichiometry. Finally, characterization proves the layer-transferred thin films are ferroelectrically active, with domains and piezoresponse similar to bulk crystals.

ABSTRACTDue to its outstanding thermal and chemical stability, single-crystal sapphire is a crucial material for high-temperature optical sensing applications. The potential for using hydrogen ion implantation to fabricate stable, high temperature optical waveguides in single crystal sapphire is investigated in this work. Hydrogen ions were implanted in c-plane sapphire with energies of 35 keV and 1 MeV and fluences 1016-1017/cm2. Subsequent annealing was carried out in air at temperatures ranging from 500˚C to 1200˚C. Complementary techniques were used to characterize the samples, including ellipsometry and prism coupling to examine optical properties, Rutherford backscattering/ion channeling for crystal defects, and nuclear reaction analysis for hydrogen profiling. Several guiding modes were observed in H-implanted (1 MeV) samples annealed above 800˚C through prism coupling, and a maximum index modification of 3% was observed in the 35 keV samples and 1% in the 1 MeV samples through ellipsometry, with the 1 MeV index variation being confirmed through prism coupling. The possible causes of the index modifications, such as H related defects, as well as implications for tailoring the refractive index of sapphire are discussed.

The formation of buried oxide structures in single crystal silicon by high-dose oxygen ion implantation has received considerable attention recently for applications in advanced electronic device fabrication. This process is performed in a vacuum, and under the proper implantation conditions results in a silicon-on-insulator (SOI) structure with a top single crystal silicon layer on an amorphous silicon dioxide layer. The top Si layer has the same orientation as the silicon substrate. The quality of the outermost portion of the Si top layer is important in device fabrication since it either can be used directly to build devices, or epitaxial Si may be grown on this layer. Therefore, careful characterization of the results of the ion implantation process is essential.
