Nanostructured materials contain an extremely high density of interfaces. The properties of
these materials when exposed to extreme conditions of radiation dose, stress, deformation …

An effective heat of formation (EHF) model for predicting compound phase formation
sequence is described. The EHF model defines an effective heat of formation ΔH′, which is …

This article summarizes theoretical work on sputtering during the past decade, with the
emphasis on elemental sputtering in the linear cascade and spike regimes as well as alloy …

Cr-rich alpha prime precipitates (CrRP) induce hardening and embrittlement of FeCr alloys,
but the kinetics of CrRP formation due to particle irradiation are not well understood. In this …

The role of electron-phonon interactions in energetic displacement cascades in metals is
evaluated by considering the diffusion of electrons in a localized heat spike. It is found that …

A systematic study of ion-beam mixing of tracer impurities in thin metal films at low
temperatures has been conducted. We have investigated the dependence of ion mixing on …

The basic physical mechanisms of damage formation in semiconductors due to swift heavy
ion (SHI) irradiation are not yet fully understood. In the present paper damage evolution and …

The application of nickel coatings on structural materials in molten salt reactors for corrosion
resistance is being researched. For corrosion resistance, the coatings must have specific …

Based on the basic understanding of prominent helium (He) bubble storage and defect
annihilation in the dual-phase heterogeneous interfaces designed in nano-meter materials …

The alteration of the near‐surface composition that has often been observed in ion
bombarded alloys and compounds results from the dynamic interplay of several processes …
