Abstract
The work investigates the influence of electron radiation on the structural and surface morphological properties of TlGaS2 single crystals. The irradiation of the studied crystal samples with electrons with an energy of 2 MeV and a beam current density of 0.085 μA/cm2 is presented. The experiment was performed in the contact mode operation of a scanning probe microscope. From the obtained X-ray diffraction patterns of the TlGaS2 single crystal, the following were determined: Bragg reflections, experimental versus calculated data, and a difference curve demonstrating their agreement or divergence. The structural characteristics of the TlGaS2 single crystal irradiated with accelerated electrons were investigated.
