摘要
Microstructural observations of gallium arsenide single crystals irradiated with a few tens of MeV C-60 incident clusters (fullerenes) were performed. Normal and grazing incidences were investigated. Similar to in the case of silicon and germanium, cylindrical amorphous tracks whose diameters vary as a function of the projectile energy were found. However, for a given energy of the clusters, the track diameters are slightly different from one material to another. Also depending on the fullerene, energy is the length of the amorphous cylinder that formed along the projectile's path. The recrystallization process under an electron beam during transmission electron microscopy observation was analyzed and a higher growth rate for gallium arsenide compared to that of germanium was seen.
