摘要

Abstract

Ion bombardment analysis of perovskite materials is challenging owing to their peculiar structure. This shortcoming renders the reliability on the technique somewhat questionable. In this research, three structured modifications (i.e., scan angle, low energy, and large ion bombardment) were adopted to improve the ion bombardment analysis of 99,999 ions using Monte Carlo simulations. The modified technique was used to analyze the effects of a chemically pressurized "A" site in the perovskite lattice system. The LaCeTh,0.1,Cu,2,O,y, compound was used in this experiment. Despite the low probing energy, it was observed that the high number of ions bombarding the material resulted in external pressure on the lattice structure of the material. Moreover, the chemically pressurized "A" site perovskite material was characterized by lattice mismatch, lattice fluctuations, grain boundary collapse, and oxygen displacement. The novel discovery of this research is the inter- and intra-extended lattice mismatches that are likely to connect. Hence, further investigation of the connection between inter- and intra-extended lattice mismatches is recommended as they may enable fabrication of room temperature superconductors.
