Abstract
The dynamics of pore formation during etching of heavy ion (Ar9+ -4.5 MeV/amu) irradiated bisphenol-A polycarbonate (PC) and polyethylene terephthalate (PET) films is determined by a conductivity cell. This work presents the theoretical basis of this method and describes the experimental procedure. The obtained results allow the determination of the track (V(t)) and bulk (V(g)) etch rates, and an estimate of the damage zone diameter in PC before etching.
