This study reports that high fluence fullerene ion (C<sub>60</sub><sup>+</sup>) irradiation of 1-6 MeV, which was made possible by a new-type of high-flux ion source, elongates metal nanoparticles (NPs) in amorphous SiO<sub>2</sub> as efficiently as swift heavy ions (SHIs) of 200 MeV Xe<sup>14+</sup>, i.e., two orders of the magnitude higher energy ions. Comparing the irradiation effects induced by both the beams, the stopping processes of C<sub>60</sub> ions in SiO<sub>2</sub> are discussed in ...[more]
