13. We note, however, that amorphization by ion irradiation is achievable when the implanted ion is a chemically-active impurity and is present at sufficiently high concentrations; see, e.g., A. Benyagoub and L. Thomé, Phys. Rev. B PRBMDO 0163-1829 10.1103/PhysRevB.38.10205 38, 10205 (1988) and references therein.
