High Resolution Transmission Electron Microscopy (HRTEM) has been used to obtain direct Information on the structure of damage clusters and in-depth radiation damage distribution in ion-implanted Ge and GaAs with Te+ and Si+ respectively, at doses far below the amorphization threshold. The observed changes in damage contrast in Te+ implanted Ge emphasize the existence of well defined separation between vacancies and interstitials in the lattice damage clusters. For GaAs an integrated “grey zone” was found as a typical effect of Si+ implantation.
