DEFECTS IN CRYSTALS CREATED BY ION BOMBARDMENT : THEORY AND SIMULATION

I. Torrens

The damage processes involved in the penetration of an energetic ion in a crystalline solid are reviewed qualitatively. Different methods of studying the mechanisms of damage and defects created are described and the role of computer simulation in the comparison of theory and experiment is discussed.
