DOI 10.1134/s0018143919010077
Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

Abstract The defect formation in AlN ceramics by bombarding with Fe+7 ions at a fluence ranging from 1 × 1011 to 1 × 1014 ion/cm2 has been studied. Changes in the main crystallographic characteristics, a decrease in the Griffiths criterion, and an increased in average stress as a result of irradiation are due to the appearance of additional defects in the structure and their subsequent evolution leading to changes in the degree of crystallinity. Pyramidal hillocks with an average height of 17–20 nm are observed to form on the surface of samples irradiated with Fe+7 ions at a fluence of 1 × 1011 ion/cm2.
