Abstract:High energy ion beam irradiation is an important tool to engineer the properties of multifunctional materials for diverse applications. The present study reports the impact of 120 MeV Au ion beam irradiation on structural and luminescence properties of (K,Na)NbO3 (KNN) films. The increase in ion fluence has resulted in crystalline‐to‐crystalline and crystalline‐to‐amorphous phase transitions at room temperature. The dense grain‐like morphology of crystalline films gets transformed into clusters of nano‐sized g… Show more
