Abstract
The diffusion of fission product (Cs) implanted into oxide single crystals (ZrO2 and MgAl2O4) has been studied by using the RBS technique. Implanted c rystals were either annealed or post-irradiated with Ar ions at elevated te mperatures and the depth profiles of fission products were analyzed. In uni rradiated crystals, Cs diffusion occurs above 800 degrees C: Ar irradiation reduces the diffusion temperature down to 600 degrees C. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
