摘要: Depth dependence of hardness in ion-irradiated 316 stainless steel was evaluated by the sectioning damaged region and subsequent nano-indentation. The range plastically deformed nano-indentation supplementarily investigated transmission electron microscopy. When indentation depth critical depth, hc, which derived from Nix–Gao plot, dislocation structure observed specimen surface to right below bottom region. To verify hardness, “multi-layer model” introduced this study. multi-layer model is based on following assumptions; (1) can be divided into sub-layers having their own local HL; (2) product f HL each sub-layer where volume fraction a deformation zone; (3) zone hemisphere. Eventually, through nano-indentation, experimentally evaluated. Further correlation between displacement damage irradiation hardening ΔH study agreed with that neutron experiments.
