Fig. 3: Lattice structure mapping and grain identification of pristine and irradiated FeGe films.
From: Inducing a tunable skyrmion-antiskyrmion system through ion beam modification of FeGe films
a Cu-Kα XRD patterns of pristine and irradiated films. Void regions are due to removal of peaks produced by sample mounting hardware. b Select Area Electron Diffraction data of film irradiated at 1013 ions/cm2 along the (111) plane. Note the diffuse ring indicative of amorphous material overlaid on the crystalline FeGe peaks. Scale bar is 5 nm−1. c Grain orientation map of film irradiated at 1013 ions/cm2. Colored granular regions in top half of image correspond to individual crystalline and amorphous grains. d Grain orientation map of film irradiated at 1014 ions/cm2. Void region in top right of image is empty space off of the sample surface. Scale bars in c, d are 5 nm.
