The yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ) coatings with 4–6 mol.% Y2O3 content were irradiated by 6 MeV Au ions with a fluence 6.0 × 1015 ions/cm2. The cubic to monoclinic transformation of ZrO2 was identified in the Au-irradiated samples. The cavities were observed in the YSZ layer, while larger size cavities were found inside the 6YSZ layer. LBE corrosion results showed that irradiation improved the adhesion and corrosion resistance of the coating due to the fact that irradiation released the stresses in the coating. Overall, the 4YSZ coating showed the best corrosion resistance and irradiation resistance in the case of heavy ion irradiation.

钇稳定氧化锆涂层的重离子辐照对组织及铅铋腐蚀的影响


Y2O3 含量为 4–6 mol.% 的氧化钇稳定氧化锆 （YSZ） 涂层由 6 MeV Au 离子以 6.0 × 1015 个离子/cm2 的磁通量照射。在 Au 辐照样品中鉴定了 ZrO 2 的立方到单斜晶相转变。在 YSZ 层中观察到空腔，而在 6YSZ 层内发现较大尺寸的空腔。LBE腐蚀结果表明，由于辐照释放了涂层中的应力，辐照提高了涂层的附着力和耐腐蚀性。总体而言，4YSZ 涂层在重离子辐照情况下表现出最佳的耐腐蚀性和抗辐照性。
