Abstract
Samples of a heavy metal fluoride glass (BInZnYbTGa) were subjected to argon and nitrogen irradiations of energies of 50 and 100 keV and fluences of 5×10 16 and 1×10 17 ions/cm 2. A 10 keV Ar irradiation at the ion dose of 1×10 17/cm 2 was also performed. Modifications induced by the implants were characterized by nuclear microanalysis, electron spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy and optical techniques. Surface precipitation of Th and Ba, as well as F and In depletion, were detected. Correlated modifications of the optical transmittance and reflectance were observed.
