Effects of Ion Beam Irradiation on Nanoscale Cooper-Pair Insulators
Figure 1
Results of irradiating a 5 nm thick film by a beam of 105 protons with 10 keV energy. (a) Distribution of the concentration of the displaced indium and oxygen atoms (recoils) per unit proton fluence. (b) Energy loss to phononic excitations per unit depth by protons and recoils.
