    Notes: 2 matrix by ion-beam mixing of SiO2/Ag multilayers is studied via Rutherford backscattering spectrometry, optical absorption, and transmission electron microscopy experiments. In a first step, irradiation with MeV heavy ions transforms the continuous Ag layers into a string of micrometer-sized Ag inclusions. This mechanism can be attributed to lateral segregation of metallic atoms induced by irradiation. In a second step, the Ag inclusions are broken up by incoming ions and Ag nanoclusters are formed by agglomeration of mobile Ag atoms. The latter mechanism is likely due to a combination of ballistic mixing and radiation-induced segregation or radiation-enhanced diffusion processes. The size of the metallic nanoclusters formed depends also on the irradiation temperature.

    Notes: 2 matrix is studied by means of the Rutherford backscattering technique. Two different mechanisms are observed: at low temperature (300 K and below) the variance of the mixed profile varies with the square of the ion fluence, whereas at higher temperature (400 K to 620 K) a linear variation is found. The low-temperature kinetics are accounted for by the migration of Ag-defect complexes after introduction of Ag atoms into the silica matrix by a ballistic process. A combination of ballistic and radiation-enhanced diffusion processes explains the results obtained at high temperature. This work emphasizes the role of the presence of metallic clusters on the migration of metal atoms in silica.
