Scattering of a particle at a crystal-structure atom

Аннотация

The interaction between an atom located inside a crystal structure and a moving external particle is accompanied by changes in its environment, and as a consequence, the atom is additionally affected by it. The force impact of the image of a moving multiply charged ion on the state of an ultrathin carbon film is calculated. The p possibility of forming a pore in the film as a result of ion propagation through the film is shown. The size of the pore turns out to be strictly correlated with that of the ion wave packet incident from free space on the thin-film carbon crystal structure. It is possible to trace the formation of the boundary with a classically inaccessible region called the caustic surface by numerically solving the three-dimensional nonstationary Schrödinger equation in the problem of the collision between a moving multiply charged ion and a carbon atom. On the whole, the performed calculation confirms the previously obtained results.
