Abstract
The accumulation of deuterium in an assembly of nickel foils by the pulsed irradiation of a deuterium plasma is studied. It is established that implanted deuterium is transferred to a much greater depth than that corresponding to the projective range of deuterium plasma ions with a maximum velocity of 108 cm/s. The maximum concentration (up to 4 at % deuterium) is observed in the second Ni foil. The observed phenomenon can be explained by the action of shock waves and concomitant stresses on the transport and redistribution of deuterium to greater depths.
