Abstract
The implantation of metal ions into single crystals of MgO(100) followed by thermal annealing leads to an increase in absorption of ultra violet and visible light. Metal ions of Au, Sn, Ag, Cu and Ti were implanted at a depth of a few thousand Angstroms followed by thermal annealing. MgO samples implanted with He and Si ions at greater depths were used to study the optical effects and thermal annealing of radiation damage. The influence of bombardment fluence and heat treatment on the size of the metal clusters and on the fraction of atoms in clusters were measured using absorption photospectrometry.
