Molecular dynamics simulation of displacement cascades in Ni-Mo alloy

摘要: Molecular dynamics method is used to investigate the displacement cascades in Ni-Mo binary alloy. Effects of the irradiation temperature, energy of the primary knock-on atoms and concentration of solute Mo atoms are taken into consideration on radiation damage to the Ni-Mo alloy. It is found that Mo atoms reduce production of the Frenkel pairs at 100 K, while they enhance defect production at 300 K and 600 K. Size of the largest defect clusters decreases with increasing concentrations of Mo atoms (C_Mo) at 100 K, but it increases with C_Mo at 300 K and 600 K. Most of the point defects get clustered in cascades leaving only a few vacancies and interstitials isolated.
