Metallic Ca Aggregates Formed Along Ion Tracks and Optical Anisotropy in CaF<sub>2</sub> Crystals Irradiated with Swift Heavy Ions

Metallic Ca Aggregates Formed Along Ion Tracks and Optical Anisotropy in CaF<sub>2</sub> Crystals Irradiated with Swift Heavy Ions

It is known that swift heavy ion (SHI) irradiation induces the shape elongation of metal nanoparticles (NPs) embedded in transparent insulators, which results in anisotropic optical absorption. Here, we report another type of the optical anisotropy induced in CaF<sub>2</sub> crystals wit...
