Additional Information: This paper emphasises the importance of ion implantation in the preparation of samples. The paper discusses the importance of the implantation conditions for producing samples with a very large third-order optical susceptibility. All the implantation work for this paper was undertaken by me, employing techniques and controls which I have developed over a number of years for the optimisation of metal nanoclusters in insulators. The third-order susceptibility was one of the largest ever reported, a result which contributes significantly to the body of knowledge which may eventually lead to a potential route to all-optical switching technology.
