Ym. Yakovlev et al., The effect of He+, O+, B+, and Cd+ implantation on the surface structure of magnesium oxide substrates for HTSC films, TECH PHYS, 46(8), 2001, pp. 1045-1048
The surface structure and the morphology of polished MgO(100) substrates af
ter ion implantation and laser annealing are studied. It is shown that ion
implantation, combined with subsequent laser annealing, modifies the surfac
e of the MgO(100) substrate, producing a single-crystal surface layer. Acco
rding to electron diffraction analysis data, this layer is continuous only
in case of Cd+ implantation. (C) 2001 MAIK "Nauka/Interperiodica".
