The nature of the detected anomalies in the antiferromagnetic metal with dynamic charge stripes and spin-wave component of the magnetic structure is discussed.

Improved mechanical properties of oxide dispersion strengthened (ODS) steels, the advanced materials for the reactor core, are due to the high density of uniformly distributed nanosized oxide ...inclusions. Transformation of the nanostructure of ODS steels under irradiation determines their stability during operation in the reactor conditions. In this work, three ODS steels are studied: Eurofer ODS, 10Cr ODS, and KP-3 ODS with different alloying systems. In these steels, the chromium content varies from 9 to 14 at %; such alloying elements as V, Ti, Al, W, and Mn are present in different proportions. The effect of irradiation with iron ions up to 3, 6, and 30 dpa at a temperature of 350°C was studied. The radiation-induced changes were analyzed by transmission electron microscopy and atom probe tomography. Although the sizes of oxide inclusions remained almost without change under irradiation, a decrease in their number density was observed in 10Cr ODS and KP-3 ODS steels, while the number density of oxides in Eurofer ODS steel did not change under the irradiation to 30 dpa. On the whole, the strengthening of the ODS steels due to inclusions during the irradiation to 30 dpa at 350°C changed insignificantly, which indicates their radiation resistance and their low propensity for low-temperature radiation strengthening and embrittlement.

The study is devoted to the methodology of simulation experiments for the analysis of radiation damage of structural materials of nuclear power plants by irradiation with heavy ions and subsequent ...analysis with use of the ultramicroscopy and nanoindentation methods. Details of the irradiation experiments in the TIPr accelerator (Institute for Theoretical and Experimental Physics) with ion energy of 101 keV/nucleon are given. Current approaches to the analysis of radiation-induced changes in the structural phase state of samples irradiated with ions with use of transmission electron microscopy and atom probe tomography are demonstrated. Models for the evaluation of radiation hardening based on microscopic changes, as well as the capabilities of the nanoindentation method for direct measurement of the hardening of a specimen layer irradiated by ions, are considered.

Manganese monoarsenide samples have been prepared by the sealed-ampule technique and characterized by X-ray diffraction, differential thermal analysis, and scanning electron microscopy. The ...hexagonal- to-orthorhombic phase transition of MnAs has been studied using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and magnetic measurements. The enthalpy and temperature range of the transition have been determined to be Δ
H
=–5.6 J/g and 312.5–319 K, respectively. The enthalpy and temperature range of the transition are influenced by the quality of the samples. The samples containing inclusions of the metastable, orthorhombic phase have a lower enthalpy and broader temperature range of the magnetostructural transformation of manganese monoarsenide. It has been demonstrated that DSC is an effective tool for assessing the quality of MnAs samples. Temperature dependences of specific magnetization and magnetic permeability for MnAs lend support to the DSC results. From these data, the Curie temperature of MnAs has been determined to be 40°C, in good agreement with previously reported data.

eutectic system. The results demonstrate that the heat effect and temperature range of the ...ferromagnetic-to-paramagnetic phase transformation depend on the crystallite size of manganese arsenide. Reducing the crystallite size to ≤60 nm causes the heat effect of the transformation to disappear, significantly changes the temperature range of the magnetic transition, and raises the Curie temperature of the alloy to 351 K.

The evolution of the escape probability of hot and thermalized photoelectrons to vacuum from GaAs(001) with adsorbed layers of cesium and oxygen under the transition from the negative to positive ...effective electron affinity is studied by photoemission quantum yield spectroscopy. A minimum in the dependence of the escape probability of thermalized electrons at zero affinity is observed. The minimum is caused by a photoelectron capture into the two-dimensional subband states in the near-surface band bending region. Lower escape probability values for the cesium deposition, as compared to the oxygen deposition on the GaAs(Cs,O) surface with negative electron affinity, are explained by the photoelectron reflection or scattering at two-dimensional “metallic” Cs clusters.
