    Abstract: Reflection spectra of cerium dioxide sintered samples were measured in the UV-visible range after irradiation with various heavy ions (2.4-MeV Cu, 5-MeV W, 10-MeV W, 36-MeV W, 100-MeV Kr, and 200-MeV Xe). Differential reflectance spectra of irradiated samples after subtraction of the reference sample spectrum are fit with six broad Gaussian bands centered at about 1.2, 2.2, 2.8, 4.0, 4.8, and 6.2 eV. The growth curves of most bands show a saturation behavior vs ion fluence. Reflection spectra are consistent with the UV-visible absorption spectra of electron-irradiated ceria single crystals for photon energies lower than 3.2 eV, corresponding to the optical gap. The spectra are tentatively analyzed on the basis of charge transfer bands and the 4f-5d transitions related to the Ce3+ ions in the distorted environment formed by irradiation. More insight into defect formation is given by the reflection spectra rather than the absorption ones due to the limitation in the absorption of the optical gap. These data are also discussed with reference to the radiation damage processes by electronic excitations and nuclear collisions in ceria.

    Abstract: The microstructure of virgin and heavy ion-irradiated Ce1–xGdxO2–x/2 with a wide range of Gd dopant concentrations (0 ≤ xGd ≤ 0.5) was evaluated by x-ray diffraction (XRD), micro-Raman spectroscopy, and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) for selected area electron diffraction (SAED) analysis and plane-view bright-field (BF) imaging of ion tracks. The Ce1–xGdxO2–x/2 samples were irradiated with 200-MeV Xe14+ ions up to fluences from 3 × 1011 to 1 × 1013 cm−2 at ambient temperature. XRD patterns of the virgin Ce1–xGdxO2–x/2 samples showed saturation of lattice parameter and relaxation of microstrain in Ce1–xGdxO2–x/2 which are attributed to the increasing Gd concentration. Moreover, micro-Raman spectroscopy and SAED patterns revealed the bixbyite (C-type) structure formation and oxygen vacancy ordering for xGd  & gt; 0.2 that is induced by dispersed C-type domains in the fluorite-structured (F-type) matrix. In the irradiated samples, asymmetric XRD peaks induced by lattice distortion were observed together with ion tracks in BF-TEM images. The radiation damage was recovered with the increase of Gd concentration. There is a rapid reduction of radiation damage cross section for xGd  & gt; 0.2 with a reduction of the C-type structure reflections in XRD and SAED patterns.

    Abstract: The damage induced in cerium dioxide by swift heavy ion irradiation was studied by micro-Raman spectroscopy. For this purpose, polycrystalline sintered pellets were irradiated by 100-MeV Kr, 200-MeV Xe, 10-MeV, and 36-MeV W ions in a wide range of fluence and stopping power (up to ∼28 MeV μm−1). No amorphization of ceria was found whatsoever, as shown by the presence of the peak of Raman-active T2g mode (centered at 467 cm−1) of the cubic fluorite structure for all irradiation conditions. However, a clear decrease of the T2g mode peak intensity was observed as a function of ion fluence to an asymptotic relative value of about 45%. Similar decays were also observed for satellite peaks and second-order peaks. Track radii deduced from the decay kinetics for the 36-MeV W ion data are in good agreement with previous determinations by X-ray diffraction and reproduced by the inelastic thermal spike model for low ion velocities. However, interaction between the nuclear and electronic stopping powers is needed to describe the decay kinetics of 10-MeV W ion data by the thermal spike process. Moreover, the asymmetrical broadening of the main T2g peak after irradiation was analyzed with different theoretical models.
