Abstract
The response of the point defect and antistructure systems to ion beam irra diation is investigated using methods of linear response on thin single cry stals of ordered Cu3Au grown by molecular beam epitaxy. We demonstrate that antisite evolution, as measured by electrical resistance, quantitatively d etermines both the defect populations and diffusion in the irradiation fiel d, and we explore new linear and nonlinear response processes as the antist ructure system is driven from equilibrium.
