Abstract:
Argon ion irradiation enhanced diffusion between Cu and Ni was found beyond the radiation effect zone in classical theory. The enhanced diffusion effect attenuates along with the distance between the diffusion zone and the radiated surface. An interpretation based on irradiation induced discrete breathers was employed as a possible mechanism.
