Sample spinning to mitigate polarization artifact and interstitial-vacancy imbalance in ion-beam irradiation
Abstract Accelerator-based ion-beam irradiation has been widely used to mimic the effects of neutron radiation damage in nuclear reactors. However, ion radiation is most often monodisperse in the incoming ions’ momentum direction, leading to excessive polarization in defect distribution, while the s...
