This book contains proceedings of the NATO Advanced Study Institute (ASI): The 32nd Course of the International School of Solid State Physics entitled Radiation Effects in Solids, held in Erice, Sicily, Italy, July 17-29, 2004, at the Ettore Majorana Centre for Scientific Culture (EMCSC).
The purpose of this Course was to provide ASI students with a comprehensive overview of fundamental principles and relevant technical issues associated with the behavior of solids exposed to high-energy radiation. These issues are important to the development of materials for existing fission reactors or future fusion and advanced reactors for energy production; to the development of electronic devices such as high-energy detectors; and to the development of novel materials for electronic and photonic applications (particularly on the nanoscale).
The Course covered a broad range of topics, falling into three general categories:
Radiation Damage FundamentalsEnergetic particles and energy dissipation
Atomic displacements and cascades
Damage evolution
Defect aggregation
Microstructural evolution
Material Dependent Radiation Damage Phenomena (metals, alloys, semiconductors, intermetallics, ceramics, polymers, biomaterials)Atomic and microstructural effects (e.g., point defects, color centers, extended defects, dislocations, voids, bubbles, colloids, phase transformations, amorphization)
Macroscopicphe nomena (e.g., swelling, embrittlement, cracking, thermal conductivity degradation)
Special TopicsSwift ion irradiation effects
Ion beam modification of materials
Nanostructure design via irradiation
Nuclear fuels and waste forms
Radiation detectors, dosimeters, phosphors, luminescent materials, etc.
Solar and galactic cosmic particles
Irradiation effects in bone
В данной монографии описывается воздействие ускоренных ионов на твердые тела и в частности пленки. Описываются вызванные этим структурные изменения, изменения механических напряжений и обуславливающие это механизмы, также методы их экспериментального исследования и моделирования.
