Abstract: | Development of nanostructured materials has become of wide interest due to their exotic properties and interesting physics
aspects. Energetic ions play a crucial role in the development of nano materials. Ions of different energy regimes have different
roles in growth of nano particles. Low energy ions (typically up to a (kiloelectronvolt) keV) in plasma, have been in use
for growth of nano particle thin films. Low energy ions (typically a few hundred (kiloelectronvolt) keV) from ion implanters
are used for growth of nano particles in a matrix. High energy heavy ions (swift heavy ions) have been in use in recent years
for growth of nanostructures and also for modifying nanostructures. Highly charged slow moving ions and focused ion beams
too, have potential for creating nanostructures. Out of these several possible roles of energetic ions, there have been developments
at NSC Delhi in growth of nanostructures by RF plasma, low energy ions and swift heavy. |
