Damage rates and recovery of 99.99% pure tungsten have been investigated after electron irradiation near 4 "K by means of electrical resistivity. The damage rate data tend to a value of To = 38 to 42 eV. The recovery of the residual electrical resistivity shows three major stages: Stage I from 4.2 to 100 "K, Stage I1 from 100 to 500 OK, Stage I11 from 500 to 1000 O K . Stage I is dominated by only one major peak a t 70 OK. An analysis based on second-order kinetics yielded a good fit to the data through 95% of the recovery. The energy derived was 0.17 eV. Only % 26% recovery is seen in Stage I and we propose that the suppression is due to interstitial trapping by impurities. Stage I11 accounts for about 40% recovery of the induced resistivity and has a center temperature of 760 OK. The stage was analysed assuming second-order kinetics; this analysis gave an energy of 1.1 eV.Messungen der elektrischen Leitfahigkeit wurden benutzt, um Schadigungsraten und Erholungsverhalten von 99,99yo reinem WoIfram nach EIektronenbestrahlung bei etw-a 4 "K zu untersuchen. Die MeBergebnisse fur die Schadigungsraten lassen eine Verlagerungsenergie zwischen 38 und 42 eV vermuten. Die Erholung des elektrischen Restwiderstands weist drei groBe Bereiche auf: Bereich I von 4,2 bis 100 OK, Bereich I1 von 100 bis 500 "K, Bereich I11 von 500 bis 1000 OK. I m Bereich I dominiert eine Stufe bei 70 O K . Die MeBdaten uber einen Bereich von 95% der Erholung in dieser Stufe stimmen gut mit einer Reaktion zweiter Ordnung uberein. Die Aktivierungsenergie wurde zu 0, I7 eV ermittelt. Nur % 26% der bestrahlungsinduzierten Widerstandsanderung heilen in Bereich I aus. Es wird vorgeschlagen, daB der Einfang von Zwischengitteratomen durch Verunreinigungen eine Verkleinerung von Bereich I bewirkt. Etwa 40% der Erholung finden in Bereich I11 statt, dessen mittlere Temperatur bei 760 O K liegt. Dieser Bereich wurde unter der Annahme einer Kinetik zweiter Ordnung analysiert. E s wurde eine Aktivierungsenergie von 1.1 eV erhalten.
Isochronal annealing studies of 1,3 MeV electron irradiated iron have been performed. Results indicate long range interstitial migration occurs in resistivity annealing substage IE (120 to 150 OK).Eisenproben, die mit 1,3 MeV-Elektronen bestrahlt worden waren, wurden isochron getempert. Die Resultate zeigen, daB im Teilbereich I E (120 bis 150 OK) des Ausheilens der elektrischen Widerstandserhohung Zwischengitteratome uber weite Entfernungen wandern.The purpose of this work was an investigation of point defects created a t 4.2 "K in, polycrystalline iron by 1.3 MeV electrons. Resistivity measurements were used to monitor the defect concentration following irradiation and annealing procedures. The material used was Materials Research Corporation zone refined iron. The 0.002 in. diameter wire samples had a resistivity ratio, e300/ea.z, of typically 215. All irradiations were performed a t 4.2 OK, and this temperature was used as the base in isochronal annealing work. A typical annealing spectrum is shown in Fig. 1. Here, a sample was irradiated to a dose of 1.4 x lo1* electrons/ cm2 and subsequently given 5 min pulses a t the temperatures indicated. The spectrum is divisible into three distinct recovery stages over the temperature range studied. Stage I, which consists of six principal substages, lies between 33 and about 150 "K. The substages are centered at 39, 51, 66, 87, 100, and (typically) 128 OK. The number designation of the substages is indicated in Fig. 1. A typical recovery and derivative spectrum for 99.996% pure iron. Data from a conipaniou sample were nearly identical
