Abstract

Single-crystal Al2O3 was implanted with cationic impurities in the dose range 1–4 ⊠ 1016/cm2 and subsequently annealed in either an oxidizing or reducing environment. Following annealing at 1200°C or higher, crystalline precipitates or solid solutions are observed, which are consistent with what is expected from the equilibrium phase diagram.
