The Raman spectroscopy has been used to analyse ion-induced modifications of carbon PAN-fiber shell due to 10-30 keV Ar + high fluence ion irradiation at normal and oblique incidence in the temperature range from RT to 400 °C. It has shown that formed in ioninduced processes of amorphization, recrystallization and crimping the modifications of PANfiber shell are characterized by the presence of the amorphous phase with the A peak in the Raman spectra and the increased intensity of the D peak

... ative to the G peak in comparison with non-irradiated fiber. Amorphous phase in the PAN-fiber shell is the highest in case of amorphization and the least at the crimping. The increased intensity of the D peak in the Raman spectra and the G peak shift towards higher frequencies during recrystallization and crimping indicates ion-induced nanostructuring of the PAN-fiber shell.
