Ap. Bhat et al., Effects of swift heavy ions on the dielectric properties of doped and undoped ammonium dihydrogen phosphate crystals, NUCL INST B, 166, 2000, pp. 964-967
Nonlinear electro-optic ammonium dihydrogen phosphate (ADP) (pure and doped
) crystals are irradiated with Si & Ag ions. The defect produced by ion irr
adiation is studied by means of dielectric measurements. The change in diel
ectric constant after irradiation is noted. The increase in dielectric cons
tant is found to be dependent on dopants in the crystals and electronic ene
rgy loss in the crystals. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserve
