Previous work has shown that post-irradiation annealing, at temperatures near 1100°C, produces resolvable dislocation loops in tungsten irradiated to fast (E > 1 MeV) neutron fluences of about 4 x 1019 n/cm2 or greater. To crystallographically characterize these loops, tilting experiments were carried out in the electron microscope on a polycrystalline specimen which had been irradiated to 1.5 × 1021 n/cm2 at reactor ambient temperature (∼ 70°C), and subseouently annealed for 315 hours at 1100°C. This treatment produced large loops averaging 1000 Å in diameter, as shown in the micrographs of Fig. 1. The orientation of this grain was near (001), and tilting was carried out about axes near [100], [10] and [110].

AbstractPositrons localize in trapped states at a variety of defect sites in solids, from which they subsequently annihilate with unique observable characteristics. As such, the positron is a valuable probe for the study of these defects. Positron annihilation spectroscopy (PAS) has made significant contributions in recent years to the determination of atomic defect properties in metals and alloys, and in molecular solids as well. It has also been used extensively in the monitoring and characterization of vacancy-like microstructure development, as occurs during post-irradiation annealing. The characterization of defects using PAS is selectively reviewed and some possibilities for using the positron as a localized probe of the atomic and electronic structure of atomic defects and their aggregates are discussed.
