Description

The electrical properties of polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) after implantation with silicon ions accelerated to an energy of 50 keV are studied under DC electric bias field. The electrical response of the formed material is examined as a function of Si+ fluence in the range 1014 - 1017 cm-2. The carbonaceous subsurface region of the Si+-implanted PMMA displays a significant DC conductivity and a sizable field effect that can be used for electronic applications.
