Abstract
The lattice constant and the magnetic state of CeO2 are modified by the irradiation with 200 MeV Xe ions. Under the assumption that these modifications are induced in the narrow one-dimensional region (the ion track) along the ion beam path, the dependence of the lattice constant and the saturation magnetization of CeO2 on the Xe ion fluence was analyzed by using the Poisson distribution function. The analysis reveals that the lattice constant inside the ion track, which is larger than that outside the ion track, is not affected by the overlapping of the ion track. On the other hand, the ferromagnetic state is induced inside the ion track, but the analysis shows that this ferromagnetic state is gradually destroyed due to the overlapping of the ion track. The present result implies that the Poisson distribution function is useful for describing the effect of the ion track overlapping on the ion irradiation-induced ferromagnetic state in CeO2.
