Abstract

The formation process of CuCl crystals has been studied in (3 MeV 6×1016 Cl2+ ions/cm2+3 MeV 6×1016 Cu2+ ions/cm2)-implanted silica glass by X-ray absorption spectroscopy and secondary ion mass spectroscopy. It was found from X-ray absorption spectroscopy that Cu atoms were mainly coordinated by oxygen atoms in as-implanted glass. Heat-treatment at 600 °C caused the formation of Cu-Cl bonds and heat-treatment at 1000 °C caused the formation of CuCl crystals in silica. It was deduced that the migration of Cl atoms is a rate-determining step for the formation of CuCl crystal, on the basis of the conventional precipitation model.
