Effect of grain size on defect annealing in displacement-damaged tungsten

Pulsed laser deposition and subsequent thermal treatment were used to create compact tungsten layers with various grain sizes (1μm, 100 nm, and 10 nm). The layers were self-damaged at room temperature up to 0.23 dpa using 20.3 MeV W ions and annealed in vacuum at 473 K or 673 K prior to exposure to...
