We have discovered that Q-carbon is extremely resistant to radiation damage under ion irradiations involving extreme atomic displacements and electronic excitations. Using 5 MeV Au+ions, the Q-carbon films on sapphire substrates were irradiated in the dose range 3.3–10 dpa (displacements-per-atom). After the ion irradiations, detailed studies on the atomic structure and bonding characteristics showed that atomic structure and bonding characteristics of amorphous Q-carbon remained essentially unchanged to 10 dpa of radiation damage, which is equivalent to over twenty years of neutron damage in a conventional reactor. There was an ion-beam mixed layer below the Q-carbon layer, whose thickness increased from 5 nm to 10 nm, as the dose increased from 3.3 to 10 dpa. This layer was found to be mostly amorphous with a mixture Al2O3and Al4C3. This layer, formed as a result of enhanced forward scattering and ballistic ion beam mixing, exhibited composition consistent with detailed TRIM calculations. We also found that nanodiamonds (3 nm average size) embedded in Q-carbon grew to about 60 nm after 6.6 dpa and shrank to about 40 nm after 10 dpa. We discuss the mechanism for the growth and shrinkage of metastable phase of diamond under nonequilibrium ion irradiations.
