α-γ-transition of aluminum oxide in corundum ceramics under the action of neutron radiation

Effect of iron doping on the properties of nanopowders and coatings on the basis of Al2O3 produced by pulsed electron beam evaporation

“…4b) makes the reliability of this statement doubtful [21]. It was shown is a series of works that the reversible transformation of the stable α phase according to the reaction α → γ is possible under the action of the compression and shift during vibro loading [37]; high pressure, tempera ture, and shear strains in the contact points [38]; and during the irradiation of corundum ceramics by fast neutrons [39].…”
