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...

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...

Radiation damage in copper indium diselenide (2007)
Thesis
Hinks, J. Radiation damage in copper indium diselenide. (Thesis). University of Salford

A study of radiation damage in copper indium diselenide (CIS) is presented. The build up of extended defects and the conditions for amorphisation have been explored. In particular, dislocation loops have been characterised and the influence of com... Read More about Radiation damage in copper indium diselenide.
