Abstract

The effects of a significant decrease in the sputtering rate and of the symmetrical separation of the isotope pairs 108Pd-105Pd and 110Pd-104Pd at depths up to 500 Å are experimentally detected in Pd specimens saturated with deuterium during electrolysis (i.e., having a high concentration of internal stresses). These effects are shown to be qualitatively explained using the concepts of isotope separation by centrifugation and diffusion with allowance for defects and mechanical stresses that appear in the near-surface Pd layer during deuterium penetration.
