Abstract
Three glasses (float, borosilicate float and Schott D263 glasses) were irradiated by 50keV electron beams with doses within the range of 0.21–318.5kC/m2. Volume changes induced by electron bombarding were monitored by means of Atomic Force Microscopy. Incubation doses, related to mobility of alkali ions, were measured. Low doses showed compaction of all glasses while higher doses revealed volume inflation, except for borosilicate float glass. Both surfaces of float glass were irradiated and significant differences between them were found.
