Abstract
Irradiation of semiconductor crystals with swift heavy ions or cluster beams is one way of obtaining information about both the defect characteristics in the investigated material and the defect formation mechanisms. In this work, to explain the formation of defects (latent tracks) observed experimentally to be effects of cluster–ion irradiations in Ge and GaAs, we have used the thermal spike model. The part of the energy used for thermal spike formation is determined by the electron–phonon coupling constant, g, which is unknown for semiconductors. The thermal spike calculations performed with an electron–phonon coupling constant, g(300 K) = 1.8 × 10 12 W cm −3 K −1 for Ge and g(300 K) = 3.2 × 10 12 Wcm −3 K −1 for GaAs nicely reproduce the size of amorphous tracks observed in both materials irradiated with C 60 clusters, assuming the quenching of a vapor phase as the criterion of track formation. Our results also show that g decreases when the electronic stopping power threshold increases. The expected propensity, electron–phonon coupling increasing with the band gap energy, is confirmed.

Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
