Scientific understanding of any kind of radiation effects starts from the primary damage, ie
the defects that are produced right after an initial atomic displacement event initiated by a …

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

Triboelectric materials and their modification methods are the cornerstones for fabricating
triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs). Numerous modification methods have been …

The computer code, Stopping and Range of Ions in Matter (SRIM), is widely used to describe
energetic processes of ion-solid interactions; its predictive power relies on the accuracy of …

A common misconception is that the irradiation of solids with energetic electrons and ions
has exclusively detrimental effects on the properties of target materials. In addition to the …

Cathodic arcs are among the longest studied yet least understood objects in science.
Plasma-generating, tiny spots appear on the cathode; they are highly dynamic and hard to …

The fairly recent availability of commercial focused ion beam (FIB) microscopes has led to
rapid development of their applications for materials science. FIB instruments have both …

This review provides a comprehensive evaluation of the state-of-knowledge of radiation
effects in crystalline ceramics that may be used for the immobilization of high-level nuclear …

Irradiating solids with energetic particles is usually thought to introduce disorder, normally
an undesirable phenomenon. But recent experiments on electron or ion irradiation of …

The dependence of the width of void-denuded zones (VDZs) on grain boundary (GB)
characters was investigated in Cu irradiated with He ions at elevated temperature …
