The Stranger

One day in 1925 Pieter Debye was sitting in his office at the E.T.H. in Zürich when a visitor from Norway was announced. In came a tall young man, who walked silently across the room, bent over the desk and said solemnly: ‘Professor Debye, your theory of electrolytes is incorrect.’ Whereupon Debye, after begging the stranger to sit down, and inviting him to discuss his objections, offered him an assistantship for the following year. The young man’s name was Lars Onsager (Murphy & Cohen 1968). Forty-three years later Onsager was awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry for ‘the discovery of the reciprocal relations bearing his name, which are fundamental for the thermodynamics of irreversible processes’. A group of physicists and chemists at Cornell had written of him: ‘We believe that his work is unique for its penetration, breadth and influence in the development of theoretical and experimental studies of condensed matter. He is surely one of the outstanding physicists of this century.’

Initial Stage

The coupled model is presented to describe the elements penetration into the surface layer of metal during the process of ion implantation. Mechanical stresses arising due to the interaction of particles with the surface affect the redistribution of the implanted impurity. In addition, the existence of vacancies in the metal surface and their generation under the stresses influence are taken into account. The kinetic law is written on the basis of the thermodynamics of irreversible processes. The solution had been found numerically. As a result, the distributions of impurity concentration and deformations have been obtained for various time moments. The comparison of the concentration profiles with vacancies and without their have been given.
