Improvement in the crystal quality of epitaxial Ag films on Si (111) substrates using 0.5 MeV Si+ irradiation was analyzed. Investigations show a decrease in the population of twinning grains and mosaic spread of the films. It was found that the low-temperature irradiation lead to the atomic rearrangement at the grain boundaries. The results show that the irradiation-induced improvement in crystal quality (IIICQ) for the epitaxial films was similar to the ion bombardment enhanced grain growth.
