Heavy-ion irradiation effects of high-entropy A2Ti2O7 pyrochlore with multi-elements at a site
In this work, the irradiation response of A 2 Ti 2 O 7 (A represents rare earth elements of Gd, Dy, Ho, Er, Yb and Nd) series ceramics were systematically studied under 3 MeV Au 2+ ions. The structural changes pre- and post-irradiation were characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD), grazing incidence X-ray diffraction (GIXRD) and Raman spectroscopy . After heavy ion irradiation , all the samples undergo structural transformations from ordered pyrochlore to disordered fluorite and then to amorphous phase. The sample surface became fully amorphous when exposed to the maximum irradiation dose. The 5RETO high-entropy pyrochlore exhibits the lowest rate of amorphization during the process of structural transformation. The cation radius ratio and mixed entropy are the primary factors influencing amorphization rate. The cation radius ratio shows a strong positive correlation with the amorphization rate, while the mixed entropy demonstrates a weak negative correlation with the amorphization rate. The cation radius ratio can thus serve as a reliable indicator for predicting the radiation resistance of high-entropy pyrochlore ceramics.
