Unveiling the Structural and Optical Properties of MgAl<sub>2</sub>O<sub>4</sub> Single Crystals Irradiated by Swift Heavy Ions

A synthetic single crystal of magnesium-aluminate spinel was irradiated perpendicularly to the (111) plane with swift heavy xenon ions with an energy of 220 MeV. The modified layer was attested based on Raman scattering spectra recorded while focusing on the surface. A decrease in surface crystallin...
