The Displacement Cascade in Solids

  • Chapter

Part of the book series: NATO ASI Series ((NSSE,volume 170))

Abstract

The displacement cascade in a solid occurs when an atom in the material is displaced from its site by an incident damaging particle and moves through the material producing additional displacements. This process is of central importance in the study of radiation effects in solids. The use of ion beams to modify the near-surface regions of materials is an important area of research and technology where knowledge of the displacement cascade is required for a broad range of ion irradiation parameters and technologically important and complex materials. In general we use a displacement cascade model to calculate an exposure parameter such as displacements per atom (dpa) as a method of comparing different irradiations and as a radiation-induced defect source term in modeling the effects of the irradiation.
