A transmission electron microscopy study of inert gases in silicon and iron (2012)
Thesis
Greaves, G. A transmission electron microscopy study of inert gases in silicon and iron. (Thesis). University of Salford

This thesis presents a study of inert gas inclusion in iron and silicon, as a result of ion
implantation. The effect of ion implantation conditions on the formation and
development of inert gas bubbles within these solids has been explored, and the... Read More about A transmission electron microscopy study of inert gases in silicon and iron.

A transmission electron microscopy study of the interaction between defects in amorphous silicon and a moving crystalline/amorphous interface (2008)
Thesis
Gandy, A. A transmission electron microscopy study of the interaction between defects in amorphous silicon and a moving crystalline/amorphous interface. (Thesis). University of Salford, UK/Universite de Poitiers, France

Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) has been used to investigate the
damage produced following high temperature (350°C) Xe implantation into (100)
Si at fluence (>lx!0 16 Xe ions/cm 2 ) and energy (250keV) which produce a buried
amorphous layer... Read More about A transmission electron microscopy study of the interaction between defects in amorphous silicon and a moving crystalline/amorphous interface.
