An interesting topic of recent study is how spinel materials, such as MgAl₂O₄, MgGa₂O₄ and MgIn₂O₄¹, are affected by ion implantation, a technique which can change a material’s fundamental properties. However, hardly any investigation has been carried out on irradiated spinel ferrite materials. In the previous study, we investigated the effect of Kr ion implantation on the epitaxial CoFe₂O₄ thin films, and found that the magnetization decreased due to ion irradiation causing a structural transformation from spinel to rock salt type. However, the mechanism of topotactic reaction in epitaxial films was not well explained. In this study, we focus on prototype spinel Fe₃O₄ thin films and investigate the structural transformation from spinel to rock salt via Kr ion implantation.
