“…Heavy ions are known to induce crystallization in few systems such as ZrC films (Jiang et al, 2021), MAX nanostructures (Cannavò et al, 2021), however, most of the materials exhibit crystalline disorder after irradiation (Sathyavathi et al, 1999;Ai et al, 2019;Pang et al, 2021). Ferrites are known to be stable materials, hence, their crystalline phase remains unchanged under heavy ion irradiation as reported in most of the work.…”
