A Comparison Between High- and Low-Energy Ion Mixing

  • Published:
MRS Online Proceedings Library Aims and scope

Abstract

Diffusion in a thermal spike is shown to be the dominant mechanism for both high-and low-energy ion mixing. The similarity between high- and low-energy ion mixing is the result of the fractal nature of collision cascades.
