Sequential and separate irradiation experiments on SIMP steel specimens at room temperature using H and He ions with various energy levels were conducted to produce an ion deposition plateau at 300-650 nm. The indentation stress-strain responses were examined using spherical nanoindentation tests after the irradiation experiments. It was found that the sequential irradiation by He and H produced a higher indentation yield stress than separate irradiation, indicating that the hardening was enhanced by the synergy of the H and He irradiation. The micro-mechanism responsible for enhancing the hardening of the SIMP steel through the H and He synergy was investigated using Doppler broadening spectroscopy detection and transmission electron spectroscopy observations.展开更多

The samples were irradiated at 573 K to a dose of 0.1 dpa. Their thermal aging was performed at 573 K for 5, 50 and 100 h. From the results of Doppler broadening measurement, an obvious trough could be seen in near-surface region from the S parameters and inflection point form at S–W curves. This indicates changes in the annihilation mechanism of positrons in surface region after thermal aging. Coincident Doppler broadening indicates that the density of Cu precipitates in the thermal aged samples decreased, due to recovery of the vacancies.展开更多
