In-situ optical reflectance characterization of ion beam irradiation damage on crystalline (quartz) and amorphous (silica) SiO2

Abstract

Outline: • Motivation, aim • Complement waveguide data on silica • Optical data in quartz • Detailed analysis, i.e. both fluence kinetics and resolution • Efficiency of irradiation and analysis, samples, time... • Experimental set-up description • Reflectance procedure • Options: light source (lasers, white light..), detectors, configurations • Results and discussion • Comparative of amorphous and crystalline phase
