Ion beam synthesis and optical properties of embedded nanoclusters

• Synthesis of Si and Ge nano-crystals in SiO₂:  Photoluminescence due to quantum confinement quenched by strain field

• Optical properties of ion track assisted Au nano chain-like aggregates

• Structure and photoluminesce properties of ion beam synthesized SiC nanoparticles in silicon
