Kurzbeschreibung (Abstract)

Swift heavy ions are typically defined as high-mass charged particles of kinetic energy above ∼1 MeV per nucleon (MeV/u). In this regime, the energy deposition of the ions is dominated by electronic stopping, and each individual ion may induce a linear trail of damage with a width of a few nanometers and a length of several tens of micrometers or more [Citation1]. During the last decade, ion tracks and other radiation effects induced by swift heavy ions have been studied in a wide range of materials for basic research, as well as for a wide variety of applications. The interactions of swift heavy ions with matter are significantly different from those induced by lower energy ions (keV-MeV), where atoms are directly displaced from their lattice sites via elastic collisions. In contrast, swift ions (MeV-GeV) transfer their kinetic energy to the electrons of the target, inducing ionization and initiating a cascade of secondary electrons that quickly spreads radially. The extremely high energy densities (up to tens of eV/atom) along the ion path lead to a confined plasma-like state that is dissipated through electron–phonon coupling to the lattice. Subsequent rapid transitions through equilibrium and non-equilibrium states trigger complex structural modifications within a highly localized nanoscale damage zone, forming ion tracks in materials ion tracks ­(Figure 1) [2].
