Characterization by APT and TEM of Xe nano-bubbles in CeO 2
Résumé
Only few experimental techniques are able to characterize the space and size distributions of gas-filled nano-cavities embedded in ceramic matrices. The aim of the current paper is to point out the potentiality of atom probe tomography for this objective. Nano-clusters enriched in Xe are evidenced in 3-D reconstructed volumes in Xe-implanted CeO2. Their size and density are comparable to bubble populations observed by TEM.
