Title: Temperature dependence of helium-implantation-induced lattice swelling in polycrystalline tungsten: X-ray micro-diffraction and Eigenstrain modelling

Abstract

Using synchrotron X-ray micro-diffraction and Eigenstrain analysis the distribution of lattice swelling near grain boundaries in helium-implanted polycrystalline tungsten is quantified. Samples heat-treated at up to 1473 K after implantation show less uniform lattice swelling that varies significantly from grain to grain compared to as-implanted samples. An increase in lattice swelling is found in the vicinity of some grain boundaries, even at depths beyond the implanted layer. As a result, these findings are discussed in terms of the evolution of helium-ion-implantation-induced defects.

Lattice swelling and modulus change in a helium-implanted tungsten alloy: X-ray micro-diffraction, surface acoustic wave measurements, and multiscale modelling

Journal Article Hoffmann, F. ; Nguyen-Manh, D. ; Gilbert, M. R. ; ... - Acta Materialia

Using X-ray micro-diffraction and surface acoustic wave spectroscopy, we measure lattice swelling and elastic modulus changes in aW-1% Re alloy after implantation with 3110 appm of helium. An observed lattice expansion of a fraction of a per cent gives rise to an order of magnitude larger reduction in the surface acoustic wave velocity. A multiscale model, combining elasticity and density functional theory, is applied to the interpretation of observations. The measured lattice swelling is consistent with the relaxation volume of self-interstitial and helium-filled vacancy defects that dominate the helium-implanted material microstructure.

Helium-implantation-induced lattice strains and defects in tungsten probed by X-ray micro-diffraction

Journal Article Das, S. ; Liu, W. ; Xu, R. ; ... - Materials & Design

Tungsten is the main candidate material for plasma-facing armour components in future fusion reactors. Bombardment with energetic fusion neutrons causes collision cascade damage and defect formation. Interaction of defects with helium, produced by transmutation and injected from the plasma, modifies defect retention and behaviour. Here we investigate the residual lattice strains caused by different doses of helium-ion-implantation into tungsten and tungsten-rhenium alloys. Energy and depth-resolved synchrotron X-ray micro-diffraction uniquely permits the measurement of lattice strain with sub-micron 3D spatial resolution and ~10^-4 strain sensitivity. Increase of helium dose from 300 appm to 3000 appm increases volumetric strain by only ~2.4more »« less

The effect of helium implantation on the deformation behaviour of tungsten: X-ray micro-diffraction and nanoindentation

Journal Article Das, S. ; Armstrong, D. E. J. ; Zayachuk, Y. ; ... - Scripta Materialia

Here, the effect of helium-implantation-induced defects on deformation behaviour is examined by comparing spherical nano-indents in unimplanted and helium-implanted regions of a tungsten single crystal. Helium-implantation increases hardness and causes large pileups. 3D-resolved X-ray micro-diffraction uniquely allows examination of the complex lattice distortions beneath specific indents. In the ion-implanted material we find reduced lattice rotations and residual strains due to indentation, indicating a more confined plastic zone. Together, our observations suggest that helium-induced defects initially act as efficient obstacles to dislocation motion, but are weakened by the subsequent passage of dislocations, causing a reduction in work hardening capacity.

Interactions of mobile helium clusters with surfaces and grain boundaries of plasma-exposed tungsten

Journal Article Hu, Lin ; Maroudas, Dimitrios ; Hammond, Karl D. ; ... - Journal of Applied Physics

We report results of atomistic computations for the interactions of small mobile helium clusters (He{sub n}) with free surfaces and grain boundaries (GBs) in tungsten toward development of continuum drift-diffusion-reaction models for the dynamics of mobile helium clusters in plasma-exposed tungsten. Molecular-statics (MS) simulations based on reliable many-body interatomic potentials are carried out for He{sub n} (1 ≤ n ≤ 7) clusters near sinks to obtain the potential energy profiles of the He{sub n} clusters as a function of the clusters' center-of-mass distance from a sink. Sinks investigated include surfaces, GBs, and regions in the vicinity of junctions where GBs intersect free surfaces. Elasticmore »« less

Nanoscale lattice strains in self-ion implanted tungsten

Journal Article Phillips, N. W. ; Yu, H. ; Das, S. ; ... - Acta Materialia

Developing a comprehensive understanding of the modification of material properties by neutron irradiation is important for the design of future fission and fusion power reactors. Self-ion implantation is commonly used to mimic neutron irradiation damage, however an interesting question concerns the effect of ion energy on the resulting damage structures. The reduction in the thickness of the implanted layer as the implantation energy is reduced results in the significant quandary: Does one attempt to match the primary knock-on atom energy produced during neutron irradiation or implant at a much higher energy, such that a thicker damage layer is produced?
