摘要
Ion beam induced modification and subsequent characterization of GaAs based hetero-structures (InGaAs/GaAs) have been investigated using ion channeling. The effect of Swift Heavy Ions (SHIs) on the elastic properties of these structures with varying layer thickness and incident ion fluence are discussed. A brief comparison with the results of high resolution XRD is presented. The angular scans of the irradiated samples are found to be broadened compared to the unirradiated samples, suggesting structural changes in the epilayer caused by Swift Heavy Ions (SHIs). This broadening in thick film is more compared with the thin film. Although these scans are considerably broad, reasonably good minima indicate that the lattice crystallinity is intact.
