研究目的
To study the size dependent radiation stability of ZnO and TiO2 particles, specifically comparing nanoscale (30 nm) and submicron particles, and to understand the role of defects in radiation damage.
研究成果
Nanoscale ZnO and TiO2 particles (30 nm) exhibit higher radiation tolerance compared to submicron particles due to abundant native defects and surface/interface states that facilitate in-situ damage recovery through diffusion and annihilation with vacancies. This size-dependent behavior is beneficial for applications in radiative environments like space and nuclear settings.
研究不足
The study is limited to H+ implantation at specific energy and fluence; other types of radiation or conditions are not explored. The critical particle size for radiation stability is not fully determined, and further studies are needed.
