Abstract
It is found that irradiation of SiO2 layers containing Si nanocrystals with high-energy heavy ions induces profound structural modifications—specifically, the formation of vertically ordered arrays of nanocrystals along the ion tracks. This effect results in substantial changes in the electrical properties (the conductivity and capacitance—voltage characteristics) and optical (photoluminescence) properties of the layers containing nanocrystals.
