초록

In present study, TEM foils of Ni-Mo-Cr alloy were directly irradiated with 30 keV Ar ions to allow direct characterization. The defects evolution and element segregation after irradiation were investigated by TEM and HAADF-EDS linear scanning. At low irradiation doses (1.38 and 2.76 dpa), black dots were formed and grew with increasing dose. Complicated defects including peas-shaped dislocation loops, polygon dislocation networks and large loops were visible in samples irradiated to high doses (13.8 and 27.6 dpa). Meanwhile, dislocation channels appeared, in which defects were swept out. Significant Mo depletions at dislocation lines and grain boundaries were induced by irradiation due to large misfits between Mo-Ni atoms and high content of Mo.
