Abstract

This work represents the first attempt of a direct simulation of the processes of electron-phonon interaction and lattice excitation which follow the formation of an excited electron gas such as, for instance, is the one produced by high-energy implants. The simulation method is of the type molecular dynamics and is based on a quantum mechanical representation. The results suggest a lattice disorder similar to the one of a thermal spike.
