ABSTRACTIn situ observations of 1.5 MeV Xe+ ion irradiated Au films at room temperature and at 150°C reveal the evolution of grain growth: the average grain size increases by the mechanisms of grain boundary migration and grain coalescence.

Growth Phenomenon

ABSTRACTExisting theories of irradiation-induced grain growth assume that growth occurs by the boundary migration mechanism commonly observed for thermal growth and that it is only the point defects generated si boundaries during the irradiation which are responsible for boundary migration. In contrast, in situ observations during ion irradiation of Au films at temperatures less than 20 K even have clearly demonstrated that growth occurs both by boundary migration and by grain coalescence. Here we present further evidence for the latter. Furthermore, the substantial defect cluster activity observed during irradiation suggests that dislocations play a significant role in the growth phenomenon. Here, we also demonstrate qualitatively that glide of such dislocations to or “through” a boundary can produce essentially the same effect on boundary position or structure that the original point defects would have had if they had migrated individually to or through the boundary. Via dislocation motion, point defects originating far from a boundary may induce boundary migration or boundary structure change, and hence, grain growth.

In Situ Experiments

When thin polycrystalline films of Au, Cu and various other materials are subjected to energetic ion irradiation, the average grain size increases even at cryogenic temperatures. As is the case with many ion beam processes, this phenomenon of ion irradiation induced grain growth exhibits only a very mild temperature dependence. This contribution is based on in situ experiments, performed at the HVEM-Tandem User Facility at Argonne National Laboratory. This Facility interfaces a 2 MV Tandem ion accelerator and a 0.6 MV ion implanter to a 1.2 MV AEI high voltage electron microscope, which allows a wide variety of in situ ion beam experiments to be performed with simultaneous irradiation and electron microscopy or diffraction. A series of in situ ion and/or electron irradiation experiments is being performed at the HVEM-Tandem Facility at Argonne which have shown clearly for fine grained Au films that two mechanisms for growth are operative for the ion beam case: grain boundary migration as in normal thermal grain growth and grain coalescence which is similar in appearance to recrystallization by subgrain coalescence. Especially in the case of Au for which ion-induced growth is relatively rapid, such in situ experiments also demonstrate the importance of dislocation activity which is a consequence of the collision cascade damage associated with ion irradiation. Existing theories for irradiation-induced grain growth assume that growth occurs by boundary migration and that only point defects generated at grain boundaries are responsible for the growth phenomenon.

Thin Foils

Thermal aging of Ni-12.8 at. % A1 and Ni-12.7 at. % Si produces spatially homogeneous dispersions of cuboidal γ'-Ni3Al or Ni3Si precipitate particles arrayed in the Ni solid solution. We have used 3.5-MeV 58Ni+ ion irradiation to examine the effect of irradiation during precipitation on precipitate morphology and distribution. The nearness of free surfaces produced unusual morphologies in foils thinned prior to irradiation. These thin-foil effects will be important during in-situ investigations of precipitation in the HVEM. The thin foil results can be interpreted in terms of observations from bulk irradiations which are described first.Figure 1a is a dark field image of the γ' precipitate 5000 Å beneath the surface(∿1200 Å short of peak damage) of the Ni-Al alloy irradiated in bulk form. The inhomogeneous spatial distribution of γ' results from the presence of voids and dislocation loops which can be seen in the bright field image of the same area, Fig. 1b.
