Abstract

In the present paper two examples of self-organization in solids under irradiation are considered on the basis of original mechanisms, namely, the ordering of voids in void lattices under high temperature irradiation and the alignment of gas bubbles in bubble lattices under low-temperature gas atom implantation. The ordering of cavities (i.e. voids or gas bubbles) is proposed to arise due to a dissipative interaction between cavities induced by the interstitial dislocation loop absorption and punching, respectively, which represent anisotropic mechanisms of atomic transport.
