Surface damage of V-Zr alloy by helium ions

  • 1. Bhabha Atomic Research Centre, Chemistry Div., Trombay, Bombay (India)

Description

Helium ion irradiation of V-2 wt% Zr alloy was carried out at various energies in the MeV range. Blisters and exfoliations were observed using SEM at higher doses. SIMS analysis was used to estimate qualitatively the retention of helium after annealing at 700 K. Hardness measurements were carried out on the bombarded area to determine the effects of retained gases on mechanical properties. (orig.)
