Fig.7-9  Void denuded zone formed in neutron-irradiated Fe-Cr-Ni austenitic steels (476 ℃, 18 dpa*)

The void denuded zone (VDZ) of each steel sample was measured using the average width formed between grains A and B at multiple points. The width of the VDZ, which depends on the vacancy diffusion behavior, increased with increasing Ni concentration, indicating that the vacancy diffusion differs depending on the steel type.
* The dpa (displacement per atom) represents a unit of neutron irradiation dose.
