Abstract
High purity iron sheets were implanted with high-dose nitrogen ions ac celerated to 150 keV. The implanted surfaces were examined by thin-fil m X-ray diffraction method and high resolution transmission electron m icroscopy (HRTEM). The implanted surfaces contain the metastable Fe16N 2 phase in addition to epsilon-nitride. HRTEM reveals that Fe16N2 doma ins have lattice fringes of double spacing along the [121] direction o f the matrix and spherical morphologies with coherent interfaces.
