Electron Microscope Study of Radiation Damage in Graphite

Neutron-induced defects in the graphite lattice are studied by dark-field transmission electron microscopy. The annealing is followed and the appearance of the defects is interpreted on the basis of the kinematical theory of electron diffraction. A physical interpretation of the observations based o...

Description
Summary:Neutron-induced defects in the graphite lattice are studied by dark-field transmission electron microscopy. The annealing is followed and the appearance of the defects is interpreted on the basis of the kinematical theory of electron diffraction. A physical interpretation of the observations based on displacement spikes and their annealing is given.
