    Notes: Abstract We speculate on a new mechanism for deuteron-deuteron fusion reactions at electron-volt energies. Appealing to conservation principles, it is shown that deuteron tunneling leading to fusion is very unlikely to take place between two isolated deuterons. It is argued that in solids, however, tunneling may lead to fusion via a new reaction mechanism which populates energy levels of4He, with simultaneous energy transfer to an electron. Predictions of this theory are that d+d+e− fusion at electron-volt energies in solids should lead to copious production of tritium, protium, energetic electrons, and small quantities of4He.

    Notes: Abstract In previous work, we introduced hydrogen (H) into Ni and Pt metals at room temperature by electrolysis. To study H-vacancy interactions on an atomic scale, trapping of diffusing H atoms at impurity-vancancy complexes was detected using perturbed γ-γ angular correlations. Two new results are reported here: (1) Transformation rules are clarified between undecorated and H-decorated complexes which are detected after annealing Pt at 323 K. In addition, non-cubic In sites were observed to form by chargingannealed, Pt, which are attiributed either to H atoms at random in the lattice or to precursor nuclei of a Pt hydride. (2) NiH is observed to form under cathodic charging of Ni at high current densities, and detected by growth of a nonmagnetic, cubic metastable phase.

    Laser surface-melting of metals studied by PAC (1990)

    Notes: Abstract High purity Pt, Ni, Cu, Fe and Al metal foils were electroplated with carrier-free111In probe atoms and melted at 293 K using 32 ns ruby laser pulses with energy densities in the range 1–10 J cm−2. Three distinct lattice locations of the probe atoms were detected in the melted surface layers using perturbed γ-γ angular correlation spectroscopy: (i) defect-free substitutional sites, (ii) non-unique sites with broad distributions of quadrupole interactions, and (iii) a probemonovacancy complex (for Pt only). The defect-free fraction was found to approach 100% when Pt is irradiated at 9 J cm−2. The fraction of probes on defect-free sites was found to increase with the energy density of the pulse and with the solubility of In in the metals. The data are consistent with the idea that laser surface-melting produces high concentrations of vacancies and lattice sinks, although no thermal trapping of point defects was detected.

    Point defects in NiAl near the equiatomic composition (1990)
    Springer
    Hyperfine interactions 60 (1990), S. 655-658

    ISSN: 1572-9540

    Topics: Physics
    Notes: Abstract Perturbed γ-γ angular correlation spectroscopy was applied to study the structure and properties of point defects near111In probes in quenched and annealed NiAl samples with five compositions in the range cNi=48–52%. Quadrupole interaction signals are analysed in terms of near-neighbor Ni-vacancy and nextnear-neighbor Ni antisite atom defects. Large mono- and divacancy concentrations were observed in all samples after quenching. For cNi〈50%, the vacancy defects could not be annealed out (structural defects). For CNi〉50%, large quenched-in vacancy concentrations annealed out near 500°C. For cNi=50%, most vacancies annealed out near 500°C, but about 35% of the111In probes retained a trapped monovacancy. This is attributed to a very low value of the formation enthalpy of a vacancy next to the In probe, estimated to be 0.16(2) eV. A lesser annelaing stage detected at 300°C is tentatively attributed to diffusion of Al-vacancies.

    Production and migration of interstitials in deformed metals (1990)

    Notes: Abstract An investigation was made of defect production during plastic deformation. Prior to cold-rolling, samples of Au were damaged and preannealed at temperatures in order to maximize site fractions of five different In-vacancy defect complexes, such as In-1V and In-2V. Evolutions of site fractions were monitored by perturbed γ-γ angular correlation spectroscopy after additional strains at 77 K. Observed transformations between sites are consistent with defect-antidefect annihilation reactions between the small complexes and mobile interstitials, and indicate a large production of interstitials during deformation. An extended defect complex attributed to a planar faulted loop became glissile under small strain.

    Cage motion of a probe atom in a vacancy complex in Pt (1990)

    Notes: Abstract The perturbation function of a Cd probe atom bound in a hydrogen-decorated vacancy complex in Pt is found to exhibit dynamical relaxation at 294 K, as measured by the technique of perturbed γ-γ angular correlations. Based on other characteristics of the complex, a model is proposed for the structure of the complex. In the undecorated state, it consists of a probe atom at the center of a tetrahedron of vacancies in the fcc structure. In the decorated state at low temperature, the probe atom returns to one of the four vacant lattice sites. The relaxation at room temperature is attributed to motion of the probe atom in a cage formed by the four vacant sites.

    Stacking fault defects in hep cobalt studied by PAC (1990)

    Notes: Abstract A study was made of lattice defects in hep Co metal using the technique of perturbed γ-γ angular correlations. Lattice sites of111Cd impurities were characterized by their nuclear magnetic dipole and electric quadrupole interaction frequencies, respectively ωL and ωO. The signal for defect-free substitutional Cd impurities was found to have collinear interactions at 77K, with ωL=438 Mrad/s and ωO=7 Mrad/s. Analysis of measurements after heavy deformation at 100 K and after annealings up to 700 K gave little evidence of thermal trapping of point defects. However, in all spectral measured after deformation, a highly stable defect site with ωL=418 and ωO Mrad/s, and showing collinear interactions, was also observed. It is attributed to a111Cd probe in a stacking fault (SF). Assuming a random distribution of proble atoms and SF's, a SF density of 20% was estimated.

    Perturbed γ−γ angular correlations: A spectroscopy for point defects in metals and alloys (1990)

    Notes: Abstract Atomic defects which migrate and trap at impurity probe atoms can be labelled by the changes they induce in the hyperfine interactions of the probe nuclei. Many studies have been made using perturbed γ−γ angular correlations (PAC) and the111In probe because of the excellent resolution of different sites. Identification of the bound states is the key problem in applying hyperfine interactions methods to point defects studies. In this study three structure-sensitive methods are applied to help identify the atomic structures of various multivacancy complexes in Pt and Au: (1) Quadrupole interaction parameters are compared with results of point-charge calculations of electric-field gradients for 20 structures containing 1–4 vacancies in the fcc lattice. (2) Hyperfine interactions induced by decorating vacancy complexes with hydrogen atoms are measured and interpreted with the assistance of point-charge calculations. (3) Transformations between complexes observed by annihilation of vacancies by mobile self-interstitials are used to test the consistency of the identifications. Using these methods in conjunction with analysis of the trapping behavior which occurs during annealing of damaged samples, structural models are presented for divacancy (2V), 3V and 4V complexes in Pt, and 3V and 4V complexes in Au. The activation temperatures of the 3V defect in Au and Pt are determined to be 162 K and 390 K, respectively, and activation temperatures of defects in Ni, Cu, Pt and Au are compared. For Pt, trapping of H at 1V and 2V complexes is observed to lead to small changes in the quadrupole interactions, consistent with well shielded protonic charges. However, trapping at 3V and 4V complexes leads to very large changes which we attribute to atomic restructuring to the defect complexes. Finally, the application of the same methodology to interpret recent experiments on NiAl, an ordered alloy, is described.
