Abstract
Ions moving through crystals at small angles with respect to atomic rows and planes undergo correlated collisions which confine their motion (“channeling”). Well-channeled ions collide only with conduction electrons, For ion velocities vi ≫ v0 ionization is similar to electron bombardment at ve = vi. The ion passing the atoms spaced at a distance d in the crystal rows experiences a coherent perturbation of frequency vi/d and may be resonantly excited at (vi/d) = ΔEij/h. This is seen in an enhanced ionization probability. The relation of this effect on the states of the penetrating ions and the crystal fields is discussed.
