Digression: ion bombardment <strong>of</strong> a<br />
superlattice (with Y. Cao and D. Jena)<br />
• 2.3 MeV Ar ion<br />
irradiation <strong>of</strong> GaN and<br />
(AlN) 4 nm -(GaN) 5 nm<br />
• Lines are Debye-<br />
Callaway models<br />
assuming phonon<br />
Rayleigh scattering<br />
scales linearly with ion<br />
dose.<br />
• Fit gives Γ = 1 at an ion<br />
