Abstract
In addition, bulk Dy2TiO5 was irradiated with 12Â MeV Au+ ions at 300Â K, 723Â K and 823Â K and monitored via grazing-incidence X-ray diffraction (GIXRD). At 300Â K, only amorphisation is observed, with no transition to other structures, whilst at higher temperatures, specimens retained their original structure. The improved radiation tolerance of compounds containing smaller lanthanides has previously been attributed to their ability to form radiation-induced phase transitions. No such transitions were observed here.
