Abstract

The internal friction of deuterium-doped vanadium has been investigated in the temperature range from 65 to 350 K. At low deuterium concentrations (≦0.18 at.−%) a relaxation effect has been observed near 90 K; its activation energy and its limiting relaxation tiem are 0.17 eV and 2×10−12 sec, respectively. A second internal friction peak (precipitation peak) appears in more heavily doped samples; the position of this second peak shifts to higher temperatures as the deuterium content is increased. Possible mechanisms for the two peaks are discussed. The phase diagram of the vanadium-deuterium system at low temperatures has been deduced from the correlation between the deuterium concentration and the position of the precipitation peak.
