Figure 3: Schematic overview of new materials with respect to the year they entered mass production.
Figure 3 depicts new materials and their incorporation into mass production.
In addition increasing importance of interface engineering in nanotechnology demands numerous new process related cleaning steps.
In addition the selectivity of the process with respect to different materials is very low.

There are numerous examples of the use of ion implantation for materials, such as semiconductors, corrosion resistant materials, polymers, glasses, etc.
In many cases, photo-catalytic materials obtained by ion implantation are called second generation photo-catalytic materials.
In well-defined experiments, energy loss mechanisms governing the ion-target interaction are responsible in producing point defects or defect clusters and this defect engineering may be a useful tool in enhancing specific properties of materials, like surface reactivity (including photocatalysis), magnetic flux pinning and others.

Knowing the radon concentration of the near-surface (surficial) materials may give important information also on geology.
Detection and quantification of tracks in etched LR-115 detectors is a key step in employing the SSNTD method for applied radon studies.
