Abstract
The defects (He-3 bubbles, dislocations, dislocation loops, clusters of sel f-interstitial atoms) formed during aging of palladium tritides are analyze d using a combination of transmission electron microscopy techniques. Their evolution under aging together with the effect of the metallic substitutio n by Ph or Pt is investigated. A comparison with the results previously obt ained from X-ray and neutron scattering experiments is also performed. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
