Ion mixing of markers in SiO2 and Si

Abstract

The amount of atomic mixing in amorphous SiO2 and Si is studied by measuring the redistribution of thin metal markers due to irradiation with 300-keV Xe+ ions. In SiO2, the mixing efficiency appears to be independent of the chemical nature of marker atoms and can be explained in terms of a linear cascade model. In Si, the mixing is found to correlate with thermally activated diffusivities of the marker species.
