Abstract

Borosilicate glass samples were irradiated by Xe and Kr ions with different fluences. The nanoindentation hardness of samples was measured. For samples irradiated by Xe and Kr ions, the hardness variation dropped with the irradiation dose in displacement per atom. The experimental results are consistent with those of other studies. A rough model was proposed to explain the results of this study and those of others.
