Popis: | Ceramics subjected to irradiation show a wide variety of damage responses, depending on composition, nature of bonding, crystal structure, starting microstructure, and type of bombarding particles. As doses reach high damage levels (a condition that varies in magnitude from one material to another), major changes in physical properties can occur, and atomic arrangements may change from crystalline to disordered. However, some ceramics show marked resistance to damage, and some properties may improve. More work is needed to fully understand these phenomena, but it is currently possible in many cases to predict at least qualitatively both microstructural damage response and observed property changes. |
