Abstract

On the basis of its thermal properties, TeO₂ crystal was selected as an insulator with low threshold electronic stopping power for track formation S_et. The crystals were irradiated by S, Zn, Mo, Kr, Te and Pb ions and the optical absorption and track formation were studied. Comparison is made with the published results on LiNbO₃, Y₃Fe₅O₁₂ and SiO₂ quartz. Good quantitative agreement is found with the predictions of the thermal spike model of Szenes with respect to S_et and the variation of the track size with the electronic stopping power S_e. It is shown that TeO₂ has a high efficiency g at low ion velocities, which is a characteristic feature of the damage cross-section velocity effect.
