Abstract

Aspects of the ion modification of the outer surfaces of tubular samples of E110 (Zr–1% Nb) alloy is studied. The samples are irradiated with a radial beam of argon ions (0.5–5.0 keV, (5–10) × 1018 ion/cm2) on the ILUR-03 setup. It is found that such ion bombardment smooths the relief formed by mechanical abrasive treatment. It is demonstrated that the effect of ion polishing is most pronounced for surface irregularities of a certain size.
