Abstract
The structure of silica glass damaged by 1 MeV O+-, 1 MeV B+- and 4 Me V Ni2+-ion implantations has been investigated by X-ray diffraction, i nfrared reflection and ultraviolet absorption measurements. It is foun d that Si atoms form SiO4 tetrahedra in the damaged regions, as in the unimplanted glass. It is deduced that the average Si-O-Si bond angle decreases with ion implantations. The middle range ordering becomes re duced in the damaged regions. The structure of glasses damaged by the implantations of these ions resemble each other.
