S. Hamada et al., EFFECT OF TRIPLE BEAM IRRADIATION ON MICROSTRUCTURAL EVOLUTION IN AUSTENITIC STAINLESS-STEEL, Radiation physics and chemistry, 50(6), 1997, pp. 555-559
An austenitic stainless steel was simultaneously irradiated with a tri
ple beam of nickel, helium and hydrogen ions in the temperature range
573-673 K. Microstructural evolution in the specimen was observed from
the cross-sectional direction normal to the incident surface using a
transmission electron microscope. Synergistic effects of displacement
damage, hydrogen and helium were characterized by decreasing the numbe
r density of dislocation loops in this temperature range. (C) 1997 Els
