Self-Organized Defect Phases along Dislocations in Irradiated Alloys
Author(s): N. Saunders, R. S. Averback, and P. Bellon
Patterning of precipitates along dislocation lines arising from nonequilibrium segregation during ion irradiation is investigated in model binary alloys. Lattice kinetic Monte Carlo simulations reveal that the competition between solute advection by point defects to the dislocation and thermal diffu… [Phys. Rev.
