The vacancies and interstitials produced in high-energy collision cascades of irradiated tungsten can form prismatic dislocation
loops with Burgers vectors 1⁄2⟨1 1 1⟩ and ⟨1 0 0⟩. The 1⁄2⟨1 1 1⟩ loops are very mobile, and their mobility is essential for the microstructure
development of irradiated materials, It is a key parameter …
The vacancies produced in high energy collision cascades of irradiated tungsten can form vacancy clusters or prismatic vacancy dislocation loops. Moreover, vacancy loops can easily transform into planar vacancy clusters. We investigated the formation energies of these three types of vacancy defects as a function of the number of vacancies using thr…
