内容記述 |
To gain a mechanistic understanding of the phase stability of M23C6 upon irradiation, the bulk W-doped M23C6 (Cr-W-C system) in the range of 0?12 at.% W concentration was prepared and subjected to helium beam irradiation, following with a thorough electron energy loss spectroscopy (EELS) analysis. Radiation-induced amorphization (RIA) was observed only at the 4 W sample with a W concentration of ?12 at.%. Analysis of the low-loss spectrum showed that the inelastic mean free path (λ) could be applied an effective indicator of the presence of an amorphous phase. The white line ratio of the carbon K-edge spectrum showed that the chemical bonding state in the crystalline state is mainly 2p3/2 bonding, and it changes to dominantly 2p1/2 bonding accompanying with the crystal-to-amorphous (c-a) transition. Discussion on the relationship between the change in λ (Δλ) and the lattice parameter (Δa) due to irradiation reveals that Δa is not dependent on Δλ, indicating that Δλ is mainly caused by the volume expansion due to the c-a transition. In addition, a crystalline state is remained even after a lattice parameter change of ?1.5 % in 0 W and 1W-samples, whereas, a lattice expansion of ?0.2 % would trigger the occurrence of crystal-to-amorphous transition in the 4W-sample. The detailed EELS analysis demonstrated that the constitutional W atoms play an important role in facilitating the occurrence of RIA in M23C6, that is, the phase instability accompanying the lattice expansion due to irradiation was emphasized by the addition of W in M23C6. The insights obtained here suggest that a higher W concentration in M23C6 is more susceptible to RIA, and therefore the resistance to amorphization is achievable by decreasing the W concentration in the steels. |
