Effects of Ion Beam Irradiation on Nanoscale Cooper-Pair Insulators
Figure 3
Results of irradiating a 15 nm thick film by a beam of 104 alpha particles with 1 MeV energy. (a) Distribution of the concentration of the displaced indium and oxygen atoms (recoils) per unit alpha particle fluence. (b) Energy loss to phononic excitations per unit depth by alphas and recoils.
