Abstract
Simultaneous triple-ion beam irradiation experiments with Fe5+, He+ and H+ ions were performed to simulate fusion damage on two nanostructured ferritic alloys with nominal composition Fe-14Cr-0.3Y2O3 and Fe-14Cr-2W-0.3Ti-0.3Y2O3. Samples were irradiated at 600 °C to an estimated dose of ⼠30 dpa, 600 appm He, 1500 appm H, and the effects on the microstructure of these alloys investigated by analytical transmission electron microscopy. The results reveal the development of nanovoids, or small bubbles, undetected in the unirradiated samples, and a virtual compositional stability of the dispersion. Nevertheless, upon irradiation the measured size distribution indicates a slight growth of those dispersoids having the smaller sizes.
