A transmission electron microscope study of the effects of irradiation on the crystallisation of a Ni60Ti40 amorphous alloy

Description

The structural stability of amorphous metallic alloys exposed to particle irradiation is of some current interest. In particular the ability of glassy alloys to resist irradiation damage and to avoid induced crystallisation will determine their usefulness in such environments. In the work reported here, it is found that a NiTi glass subjected to neutron and proton fluences of 1017 cm-2 shows changes in its mode of crystallisation, but no change in crystallisation temperature.
