Annealing of high energy nitrogen and oxygen radiation damage in molybdenum studied by positrons

  • 1. Danmarks Tekniske Hoejskole, Lyngby

Description

Well annealed molybdenum was irradiated with 63 MeV nitrogen and 72 MeV oxygen. Isochronal annealings in high vacuum of the radiation damage were followed with positron lifetime measurements and compared to previous positron investigations of radiation damage in Mo. The presence of the injected ions decrease the void growth rate apparently because they act as nucleation centers. The size distribution of vacancy clusters in the displacement cascades is characterized and its dependence on recoil energy is discussed. (author)
