Evidence for the formation of two types of oxygen interstitials in neutron-irradiated α-Al2O3 single crystals
Abstract Due to unique optical/mechanical properties and significant resistance to harsh radiation environments, corundum (α-Al2O3) is considered as a promising candidate material for windows and diagnostics in forthcoming fusion reactors. However, its properties are affected by radiation-induced (p...
