摘要
Strain-relaxed crystalline Si0.5Ge0.5 layers were irradiated with U ions of various energies (0.8-2.64 GeV) but of approximately identical electronic stopping power. Transmission electron microscopy reveals tracks of different morphology depending on the velocity of the projectiles. For decreasing beam energy, individual dotted defect structures form aligned discontinuous tracks including a large number of dislocation loops. No indication for track amorphization is found.
