Descripción
Irradiation by light ions may change the mechanical properties of nanofoams. Using molecular-dynamics simulation, we study the effect of irradiating a Au foam (porosity, 50%, and ligament diameter, 3 nm) with heavy ions: here, 10 keV Au ions up to a dose of 4 × 1016 m-2. We demonstrate that in consequence, the ligament morphology changes in the irradiated region, caused by local melting. The changes in mechanical properties are monitored by simulated nanoindentation tests. We find that the foam hardness is only around 1/3 of the hardness of a bulk Au crystal. Irradiation increases the hardness of the foam by around 10% in the central irradiated area. The plastic zone extends to only 1.5 ac, where ac denotes the contact radius; this value is unchanged under irradiation. The hardness increase after irradiation is attributed to two concurring effects. To begin with, irradiation induces melting and annealing of the ligaments, leading to their coarsening and alleviating surface stress, which in turn increases the dislocation nucleation threshold. In addition, irradiation introduces a stacking fault forest that acts as an obstacle to dislocation motion.
