Description
Small strips of amorphous alloys Fe77.2Mn0.8Si9B13, Fe39Ni39V2Si12B8, Fe47Ni29V2Si6B16 and Fe40Ni40Si12B8 have been irradiated with 2.79 MeV/u Ar ions below 50 K. Using optical microscopy, the macroscopic dimensions of the samples were measured at room temperature before and after irradiation. The observed dimensional changes of all the samples are very small for the low fluence of 1.5 x 1014 ions/cm2, but it becomes drastically large and irreversible when the fluence increased to 1.6 x 1015 ions/cm2. The measured relative change in width Δb/b0 is in the range of 4.3%-12.0%. The results are qualitatively discussed
