abstract = {Swift heavy ion (SHI) irradiation of damaged germanium
(d-Ge) layer results in porous structure with voids aligned
along ion trajectory due to local melting and
resolidification during high electronic energy deposition.
The present study focuses on the irradiation temperature-
and incident angle-dependent growth dynamics and shape
evolution of these voids due to 100 MeV Ag ions irradiation.
The d-Ge layers were prepared by multiple low-energy Ar ion
implantations in single crystalline Ge with damage formation
of ~7 displacements per atom. Further, these d-Ge layers
were irradiated using 100 MeV Ag ions at two different
temperatures (77 and 300 K) and three different angles (7°,
30° and 45°). After SHI irradiation, substantial volume
expansion of d-Ge layer is detected which is due to
formation of nanoscale voids. The volume expansion is
observed to be more in the samples irradiated at 77 K as
compared to 300 K at a given irradiation fluence. It is
observed that the voids are of spherical shape at low ion
irradiation fluence. The voids grow in size and change their
shape from spherical to prolate spheroid with increasing ion
fluence. The major axis of spheroid is observed to be
aligned approximately along the ion beam direction which has
been confirmed by irradiation at three different angles. The
change in shape is a consequence of combination of
compressive strain and plastic flow developed due to thermal
spike generated along ion track. Post-SHI irradiation
annealing shows increase in size of voids and reversal of
shape from prolate spheroid towards spherical through strain
relaxation. The stability of voids was studied with the
effect of post-growth annealing.},
