Shape elongation of embedded Zn nanoparticles induced by swift heavy ion irradiation; A SAXS study

Amekura, Hiroshi*; Kono, Kenichiro*; Okubo, Nariaki ; Ishikawa, Norito

Zinc nanoparticles (NPs) of 10 nm in diameter were irradiated with 200 MeV Xe $^{14+}$ ions with various fluences. The shape elongation of the NPs and the mean inter-particle (IP) distance were evaluated by small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) in the transmission configuration using synchrotron X-ray of 18 keV. The azimuth angle dependence of SAXS signal, which was isotropic for unirradiated state, changed to anisotropic. It indicated that the NPs collectively deformed from spheres to spheroids.
