Title: The effect of alloying nickel with iron on the supersonic ballistic stage of high energy displacement cascades

Abstract

Previous experimental and theoretical studies suggest that the production of extended defect structures by collision cascades is inhibited in equiatomic NiFe, in comparison to pure Ni. It is also known that the production of such extend defect structures results from the formation of subcascades by high-energy recoils and their subsequent interaction. A detailed analysis of the ballistics of 40 keV cascades in Ni and NiFe is performed to identify the formation of such subcascades and to assess their spatial distribution. It is found that subcascades in Ni and NiFe are created with nearly identical energies and distributed similarly in space. This suggests that the differences in production of extended defect structures is not related to processes taking place in the ballistic phase of the collision cascade. Lastly, these results can be generalized to other, more chemically complex, concentrated alloys where the elements have similar atomic numbers, such as many high-entropy alloys.

Features of primary damage by high energy displacement cascades in concentrated Ni-based alloys

Journal Article Béland, Laurent Karim ; Lu, Chenyang ; Osetskiy, Yuri N. ; ... - Journal of Applied Physics

Alloying of Ni with Fe or Co has been shown to reduce primary damage production under ion irradiation. Similar results have been obtained from classical molecular dynamics simulations of 1, 10, 20, and 40 keV collision cascades in Ni, NiFe, and NiCo. In all cases, a mix of imperfect stacking fault tetrahedra, faulted loops with a 1/3⟨111⟩ Burgers vector, and glissile interstitial loops with a 1/2⟨110⟩ Burgers vector were formed, along with small sessile point defect complexes and clusters. Primary damage reduction occurs by three mechanisms. First, Ni-Co, Ni-Fe, Co-Co, and Fe-Fe short-distance repulsive interactions are stiffer than Ni-Ni interactions, whichmore »« less

Molecular dynamics studies of defect production and clustering in energetic displacement cascades in copper

Conference Diaz de la Rubia, T. ; Phythian, W J

We review recent molecular dynamics studies of displacement cascades in copper at energies from near threshold to 25 keV where nascent subcascades develop. We discuss the structure of the cascade region and present results on the dynamical evolution and lifetime of the cascades. We show that the defect and production efficiency in cascades follows a downward trend with energy, in good quantitative agreement with experiments. The cluster size distributions from the simulations show a strong recoil energy dependence. At low energy, loosely correlated vacancy distributions are generally observed. However, as the energy and hence the lifetime of the cascade increases,more »« less

Interaction of displacement cascade with helium bubbles in alpha-iron: Computer simulation

Journal Article Pu, Jin ; Yang, Li ; Gao, Fei ; ... - Nuclear Instruments and Methods in Physics Research. Section B, Beam Interactions with Materials and Atoms, 266(18):3993-3999

Molecular dynamics (MD) method has been performed to study the interaction of displacement cascade with He bubbles with two sets of potentials. The results show that the stability of He bubbles depends much on the initial He-vacancy (He/V) ratio and the recoil energy. For an initial He/V ratio of 3, the cascade leads to the increase in the number of vacancies in the He bubble and the decrease in the He/V ratio. For an initial He/V ratio of 0.5, the interaction of a cascade with the He/V bubble results in the decrease in the number of vacancies and the increasemore »« less

Study of the fragmentation of a displacement cascade in subcascades within the Binary Collision Approximation framework

Journal Article Luneville, Laurence ; Simone, David ; Weber, William J - Journal of Nuclear Materials

When a material is subjected to irradiation, many primary defects are cre- ated at the atomic level by sequences of ballistic collision events to form highly disordered regions defined as displacement cascades. The long term evolution of materials under irradiation is dictated by the number and the spatial distribution of the surviving defects in the displacement cascade. The peculiar power law shape of collision cross sections is responsible for the frag- mentation of a displacement cascade into smaller subcascades. However, it remains difficult to define a subcascade. Within the fractal geometry frame- work, we demonstrate in this work that themore »« less
