Abstract

Single crystals of Pb2P2O7 (beam stable under 200 kV TEM electrons to a fluence > 1027 e/m2 and an ionizing dose > 1014 Gy) were rendered metamict (amorphized) with ion-implantation (100 kV P+ ions with several fluences. Pb2P2O7 and PbO·P2O5 glasses were also ion implanted at identical fluences. Radial distribution functions of metamict and glassy phosphates are being generated using energy filtered electron diffraction (EFED) data collected on 100 kV field emission STEM (VG HB-5). Ion-implanted lead phosphate glasses exhibit a significant difference in their FSDP as compared to the non-irradiated ones. XTEM results also show that ion-beam damage layer was around 200 nm deep. XTEM-HREM structure images of ion-implanted single crystals, along with their optical diffraction analysis will be presented and briefly discussed.
