Abstract
The microstructure, crystallinity, and stoichiometry of vacuum deposited thin films are modified substantially if the layer is bombarded by ions during growth. The properties of optical films prepared by ion-assistance are often superior to those produced in vapor deposition. These ion-induced modifications will be explained in terms of recently developed theories and computer simulations.
