The damage induced by heavy-ion irradiation has been studied in yttrium iron garnet (Y3Fe5O12 or YIG) films, doped with Ca, Tb and Tm, grown by liquid-phase epitaxy on gadolinium gallium garnet (Gd3Ga5O12 or GGG) substrates. Irradiations of doped-YIG epitaxial films and GGG substrates with 36-MeV 183W and 12-MeV 197Au ions were applied for fluences between 1 x 10(13) and 3 x 10(15) cm(-2) near room temperature. The radiation damage was monitored by micro-Raman spectroscopy and UV-visible optical absorption spectroscopy. Raman spectra revealed that amorphisation was achieved in YIG for both ions, whereas a high lattice disorder was induced in GGG without reaching amorphisation for the Au ion irradiation. Raman spectra also showed that a major damage of the tetrahedral sites was induced in GGG, as previously found for YIG. It is concluded that with such ions reaching the stopping power threshold of track formation in YIG and GGG the observed rate of amorphisation may result from a combination of electronic and nuclear energy losses as calculated using the unified thermal spike model.
