Research Interests
  • Ion irradiation damage effects in ceramic materials (rare-earth sesquioxides
    Dy2O3, Er2O3, and Lu2O3; spinel MgAl2O4, MgGa2O4; δ-Sc4Zr3O12; ZrO2; Al2O3; Y2O3.
    Especially ion irradiation-induced phase transformations in rare-earth sesquioxides
    Dy2O3, Er2O3, and Lu2O3.
  • Radiation tolerance study on Actinide oxides (from Y6U1O12 to Y4U3O12)
  • Radiation tolerance study on bulk nano-phase ceramic materials (such
    as:MgGa2O4)
  • Ion beam synthesis and luminescence characterization of nanophosphors (such as:
    Eu:Y2O3)
  • Coulomb Mechanisms for Ion Damage in Insulators in the Electronic Stopping
    Regime
