Abstract

A wide variety of ion beam techniques are being used in several versatile applications ranging from environmental science, nuclear physics, microdevice fabrication to materials science. In addition, new applications of ion beam techniques across a broad range of disciplines and fields are also being discovered frequently. In this book, the latest research and development on progress in ion beam techniques has been compiled and an overview of ion beam irradiation-induced applications in nanomaterial-focused ion beam applications, ion beam analysis techniques, as well as ion implantation application in cells is provided. Moreover, simulations of ion beam-induced damage to structural materials of nuclear fusion reactors are also presented in this book.

Highlights

  • Metal nanowires (MNWs) such as silver, copper, nickel, and gold nanowires have a large value of conductivity and transparency

  • A series of experiments have carried out with this sample holder to study the damage in FeCr alloy (14% Cr content) when irradiated at low temperature by heavy (Fe+) and light (He+) ions, single and sequentially, and the influence of an external magnetic field (B = 0.4 T) was analyzed [31]

  • The results indicate that the Cr distribution in the neighborhood of the iron atoms could be changed by the application of an external field

Summary

Introduction

Metal nanowires (MNWs) such as silver, copper, nickel, and gold nanowires have a large value of conductivity and transparency It could be replaced by ITO, but yet these MNWs networks or grids or meshes need more research and development (R&D) consideration from the scientific community in order to make them proficient for successful applications in recent transparent electrodes (TEs) industry. This can be realized by synthesizing MNWs using simple and economic solution-phase techniques and transferring these MNWs into coating source. Because of their economic processing expenditure, the stipulation of Ag-NWs is rising for their appliance in touch sensors as TEs
