摘要
We report the observation of tracks in single-crystalline Si0.5Ge0.5 alloy layers irradiated with 1.3-GeV U ions in the electronic stopping-power regime. Transmission electron microscopy in both conventional and high-resolution mode reveals more or less discontinuous tracks depending on the composition of the Si1-xGex alloy and on the arsenic doping level. The morphology and the atomic structure of the tracks are analyzed. The results are discussed in the frame of the thermal-spike approach which assumes both track melting and imperfect crystallization.
