Abstract
In this study, use of 40-keV H+ ion for irradiating metallic glass Fe80Si7.43B12.57 and Ni62Ta38 as well as metallic tungsten (W) at fluences of 1×1018 and 3×1018ions/cm2, respectively, was investigated. At the fluence of 1×1018ions/cm2, a crystalline layer appeared in metallic glass Fe80Si7.43B12.57, with α-Fe as the major crystalline phase, coupled with a little Fe2B, Fe3B, and metastable β-Mn-type phase. Fe80Si7.43B12.57 exhibited good soft magnetic properties after irradiation. At the fluence of 3×1018ions/cm2, Ni62Ta38 was found to be amorphous-based, with a little μ-NiTa and Ni3Ta phases. No significant irradiation damage phenomenon appeared in metallic glasses Fe80Si7.43B12.57 and Ni62Ta38. Blistering, flaking, and other damage occurred on the surface of metallic W, and the root-mean-square (RMS) roughness increased with the increase of fluence. Metallic glass Ni62Ta38 exhibited better resistance to H+ irradiation than Fe80Si7.43B12.57, both of which were superior to the metallic W.
