Ion irradiation experiments and quantitative x-ray diffraction analysis were used to demonstrate that the lattice and structure behave very differently in a complex oxide, $\delta \text{−}{\mathrm{Sc}}_4{\mathrm{Hf}}_3{\mathrm{O}}_{12}$, under irradiation. Analysis of the structure reveals that with increasing fluence, the characteristic $c/a$ ratio for the $\delta$ phase converges to that of an ideal fluorite phase, whereas locally it produces a metaphase consisting of frozen nanoscale structures having bixbyite-like flavor that increase the overall stability and radiation response of the apparent long-range oxygen-deficient average fluorite structure.

离子辐照δ-Sc4Hf3O12中不同的短程和远程行为

离子辐照实验和定量X射线衍射分析用于证明在复杂氧化物中晶格和结构的行为差异很大， $\delta \text{-}{\mathrm{SC}}_4{\mathrm{高频}}_3{\mathrm{Ø}}_{12}$，在辐射下。结构分析表明，随着通量的增加，其特性$C/\mathrm{一种}$ 的比率 $\delta$ 相会聚为理想的萤石相的相，而在局部会生成由具有方铁矿状风味的冷冻纳米级结构组成的中间相，这会增加表观远程缺氧的平均萤石结构的整体稳定性和辐射响应。
