Cadmium sulfide is a valuable material for solar cells, photovoltaic, and radiation detectors. It is thus important to evaluate the material damage mechanisms and damage threshold in response to irradiation. Here, we simulate the ultrafast…

We describe the formation of swift heavy ion tracks in polyethylene (PE) by combining the Monte Carlo code TREKIS, which models electronic excitation in nanometric proximity of the ion trajectory, with the molecular dynamics simulating a…

We present results of atomic-level simulations of damage formation along the paths of swift heavy ions (SHI) decelerated in the electronic stopping regime in amorphous polyethylene. The applied model combines the Monte-Carlo code TREKIS-3,…

Since a few breakthroughs in the fundamental understanding of the effects of swift heavy ions (SHI) decelerating in the electronic stopping regime in the matter have been achieved in the last decade, it motivated us to review the…

The annealing kinetics of the high energy ion damage in amorphous silicon dioxide (a-SiO2) are still not well understood, despite the material's widespread application in material science, physics, geology, and biology. This study…

The event-by-event Monte Carlo code, TREKIS, was recently developed to describe excitation of the electron subsystems of solids in the nanometric vicinity of a trajectory of a nonrelativistic swift heavy ion (SHI) decelerated in the…

Cadmium sulfide (CdS) is a well-known low-bandgap photocatalyst, but its efficiency is often hindered by rapid photo-generated carrier recombination and a limited number of active catalytic sites. To overcome these challenges, this study…

The aim of this work is to investigate feasibility of the ion beam analysis techniques for monitoring swift heavy ion track formation. First, use of the in situ Rutherford backscattering spectroscopy in channeling mode to observe damage…

The current work combines the Cluster Dynamics (CD) technique and CALPHAD-based precipitation modeling to address the second phase precipitation in cold-worked (CW) 316 stainless steels (SS) under irradiation at 300-400 C. CD provides the…

The radiation tolerance of gallium nitride under extreme conditions is critical for its deployment in next-generation electronic and optoelectronic devices, yet the microscopic mechanisms governing swift heavy ion induced damage at elevated…

Metal sulfides are emerging as an important class of materials for photocatalytic applications, because of their high photo responsive nature in the wide visible light range. CdS in this class of materials, have a direct band gap of 2.4 eV,…

In this work, the implications of high field bias conditions in radiation-induced defect recovery in 3C-SiC crystals is studied. It is well known that transient heating effects (or thermal spikes) occur when energetic swift heavy ions…

It is known that swift heavy ion (SHI) irradiation at temperatures below $\sim$1000 K does not cause structural damage in the bulk SiC. However, the effect of the SiC film thickness on the formation and structure of SHI tracks over a wide…

The ion production in an ECRIS is modelled using a particle-in-cell Monte-Carlo collision code in a three-dimensional geometry. Only the heavy particles (ions and atoms) are tracked, with the electron density determined from the requirement…

A combined experimental and computational study of the recrystallization process induced by swift heavy ions in pre-damaged silicon carbide crystals was reported in a recent paper by Debelle et al. [Phys. Rev. B 86, 100102(R) (2012)]. In…

We used a multiscale model to study the damage caused by swift heavy ions in GaN. The model combines Monte Carlo and molecular dynamics simulations to analyze the material response to the excitation initiated by a projectile. We found that…

Ground state reconstruction by creation of topological defects in junctions of CDWs is a convenient playground for modern efforts of field-effect transformations in strongly correlated materials with spontaneous symmetry breakings. Being…

High-energy ion irradiation deposits extreme energy in a narrow range (1-10 nm) along ion trajectories in solid through electronic energy loss, producing unique irradiation effects such as ion tracks. However, intrinsic velocity effects…

The monolithic tandem integration of third-generation solar energy materials on silicon holds great promise for photoelectrochemistry and photovoltaics. However, this can be challenging when it involves high-temperature reactive processes,…

Due to the physical and chemical processes that are involved, interactions of ionizing radiations with cells lead to single- and double-strand breaks (SSB and DSB) and base damage to DNA cells. The damage may kill the cells or may be…
