Abstract
Abstract The O18 and self ions are implanted at same depth in Fe (1 1 0) crystal and annealed to study the oxygen trapping under excess self interstitial defects. Rutherford backscattering spectrometry, nuclear reaction analysis and channeling measurements have been performed to determine the lattice site position of O18. The presence of dislocation loops is confirmed by energy-dependent dechanneling parameter measurements. From the tilt angular scans of Fe and O18 signals along 〈1 0 0〉, 〈1 1 0〉 axes, O18 is found to be displaced 0.2 A from tetrahedral towards octahedral interstitial site in O18. Similar lattice site location of oxygen with the displacement of 0.37 A is predicted by density functional theory calculations for the interaction of oxygen with 〈1 0 0〉 interstitial dislocation loop structure. Our results provide strong evidence on oxygen trapping at interstitial dislocation loops in the presence of excess interstitial defects in iron.
