  • Chapter
Fundamentals of Ion-Irradiated Polymers

Part of the book series: Springer Series in Materials Science ((SSMATERIALS,volume 63))

Abstract

The principle time scale of the different effects upon ion impact on a solid is sketched in Fig. 7.1. The specific radiochemistry with which we deal preferentially in this chapter starts at ~ 10−16 s after the ion’s transversal through the polymer. Any deposition of energy by an impinging ion onto a target occurs discretely because electronic excitation is restricted by quantized energy levels, and ionization is restricted by a certain potential height that has to be overcome for the electrons to be released from the orbit. This discrete energy-loss entity is called a “spur” [1], i.e., a projectile displaces target atoms in certain statistically distributed steps, the so-called “spurs”. Thus, changing the linear energy transfer (LET) of the impinging ion means changing the spur separation or spur density. For low-LET ion beams, spurs are widely separated and occur independently in the polymer, often leading to scission. With increasing LET — which signifies higher energy or heavier particles, i.e., when more radical pairs are created within the track radius, the spurs are connected or overlap. A high radical concentration gradient is established and so the effective radius increases, facilitating, e.g., cross-linking.
