摘要:
The increase of the dark current caused by plastic deformation in potassium iodide crystals has been measured at temperatures between 77° and 297°K. The Gyulai‐Hartly effect was not found to be dependent on temperature in this range. The maximum current induced by the deformation decreased in repeated deformation experiments, as has also been observed at higher temperatures. At 77°K a charge flow in the opposite direction to the Gyulai‐Hartly effect was found when the load was removed. On further deformation, a charge flow in the above direction was observed, instead of the expected Gyulai‐Hartly effect. As a result of successive deformation experiments, saturation currents associated with work hardening were measured. Potassium iodide crystals containingR′ centers did not show any Gyulai‐Hartly effect at 297°K.

摘要:
Expansion of crystals and compresses of LiH containing up to 40% LiT was observed during exposure to tritium &bgr; particles at temperatures from −196° to 400°C. Lithium metal precipitation was observed by electron paramagnetic resonance in small samples of similar composition. The results of auxiliary measurements of optical absorption, electrical conductivity and diffusion, nuclear magnetic resonance, and x‐ray lattice parameter were used to interpret the data. Expansion was primarily related to the introduction of vacancies into the LiH crystal lattice to accommodate the products of radiation damage and tritium decay, to permit the formation of bcc Li metal, and to produce cavities in the crystals at high temperatures. Radiation damage was quickly reversed at the lowest temperatures, and the primary defects observed were interstitial He3atoms andFcenters. Warming to room temperature caused aggregation of theFcenters and introduced vacancies which destroyed the interstitials Periodic warming for observation further increased the net expansion to allow the formation of bcc Li metal. At higher storage temperatures, vacancy diffusion stabilized a portion of the defects produced by radiation damage with the net result that increased expansion, increased Li formation, and H2molecular species were observed in the crystals. The expansion rates in the temperature range of increasing radiation damage gave an activation energy consistent with that obtained for vacancy diffusion. An intercomparison of expansion and bcc Li formation at 23°C gave results consistent with the radiation‐damage yield and with the formation of Li metal by a diffusion‐controlled process. Above a 300°C minimum a second increase in expansion related to cavitation was observed.
