Preface
Ion beams have been of increasing focus in fundamental and applied research in materials science. Development of ion beam facilities along with sophisticated devices for the characterization and analysis on nano scale has given a new direction in nanotechnology and towards tailoring desired properties in materials for their applications in various fields. A large amount of interesting research work in the direction of engineering materials properties with high energy heavy ion beams has been performed. Need was felt to have an overview of the work done in this direction by using high energy heavy ions [Swift Heavy Ions (SHI)]. The prime purpose of the book is to bring out salient features of research in materials with swift heavy ions. It will be of interest to young scholars engaged in research with swift heavy ions to focus towards specific problems in this emerging area. It has evolved fr
