The study has been carried out using field emission microscope. Changes in electron work function of the iridium substrate which are produced by vapor of deposition of submonolayers of gold in ultra high vacuum have been measured by noting the changes in the slope of Fowler-Nordheim plots. The same procedure for studying the adsorption of copper on iridium?[1] was followed to study the adsorption of gold on iridium. Adsorption of gold was examined on the iridium surface containing the (100) ring which could not be removed thermally.展开更多
ZIRLO alloy specimens were implanted with carbon ions with fluence range from 1×10 16 to 1×10 18ions·cm -2, using a MEVVA source at an extraction voltage of 40 kV at maximum temperature of 380 ℃.

The surfaces of the implanted samples were then analyzed and the TRIM 96 computer code was used to simulate the depth distribution of carbon. The valences of elements in the implanted surface of ZIRLO alloy were analyzed by X-ray photoemission spectroscopy (XPS); and then the depth distributions of the elements on the surface of the samples were obtained by Auger electron spectroscopy (AES). Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was used to examine the micro-morphology of implanted samples. Glancing angle X-ray diffraction (GAXRD) at 0.30 incident angles was employed to examine the phase transformations of implanted samples. It shows that the as-received ZIRLO alloy is mainly composed of hexagonal alpha zirconium, as for implanted samples, there appeared hexagonal zirconia (H-ZrO_ 0.35) and sigma zirconium carbide (δ-Zr_3C_2), and the δ-Zr_3C_2 increased when increasing the fluence. When the fluence reached 1×10 18 ions·cm -2, the concentration of δ-Zr_3C_2 is the maximum in all the samples. The micro-morphology of implanted samples are similar, there are many pits with diameters ranging from 1 to 3 μm on the implanted surfaces.展开更多

The valence states and depth distributions of elements in the surface layer of the samples were analyzed by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy （XPS） and Auger electron spectroscopy （AES）, respectively. Transmission electron microscopy （TEM） was used to examine the microstructure of the aluminum-implanted samples. Glancing angle X-ray diffraction （GAXRD） was employed to examine the phase transformation due to the aluminum ion implantation. The potentiodynamic polarization technique was employed to evaluate the aqueous corrosion resistance of implanted zircaloy-2 in a 1 M H2SO4 solution. It is found that a significant improvement was achieved in the aqueous corrosion resistance of zircaloy-2 implanted with aluminum ions. Finally, the mechanism of the corrosion behavior of aluminum- implanted zircaloy-2 was discussed.展开更多

Glancing angle X-ray diffraction （GAXRD） was employed to examine the phase transformation due to the copper ion implantation. The potcntiodynamic polarization technique was used to evaluate the aqueous corrosion resistance of implanted ZIRLO alloy in a 1 mol/L H2SO4 solution. It was found that a significant improvement was achieved in the aqueous corrosion resistance of ZIRLO alloy implanted with copper ions when the fluence is 5×10^16 ions/cm^2. When the fluence is 1×10^16 or 1×10^17 ions/cm^2, the corrosion resistance of implanted sanaples was bad. Finally, the mechanism of the corrosion behavior of copper-implanted ZIRLO alloy was discussed.展开更多
