Abstract

Atomic and nuclear cluster effects of (D3+) were studied by alternative implantation of deuterium cluster ion beam and isolated deuteron (D+) beam on metal targets. The beam energy was adjusted from 10 keV/d to 100 keV/d in experiment. The atomic cluster effect was shown by the enhancement of x-ray emission induced by cluster deuteron. The average ratio of x-ray intensity induced by each cluster deuteron to that induced by each isolated deuteron is about 2.6 in the experimental energy region. The nuclear cluster effect is shown by the difference of D-D fusion rates induced by two kinds of deuterons under the same experimental conditions. The ratio of the D-D fusion rates induced by the two kinds of deuterons is energy dependent.
