Abstract
Samples of TiN, NbC, and Nb(CN) have been irradiated to various neutron doses in the Brookhaven High Flux Beam Reactor. Their superconducting critical temperatures are reduced at a rate which is much less than that for similarly irradiated high-Tc A15 superconductors. A dose of 1.5×1020 n/cm2 (E≳1 MeV) causes a reduction in Tc of 6–27%. This reduction may be explained in terms of the production of metal-lattice vacancies.
