  • Descrição: Zirconium diboride (ZrB2) is a ultra-high temperature ceramic with high melting temperature (>3000 K), super strength and hardness, good thermal conductivity, and excellent resistance to plasma erosion and chemical erosion, being widely applied in hypersonic flight, arc-electrodes, refractory materials, and plasma-facing materials in fusion reactors. Therefore, the structural stability of the material is essential for the applications. Up to now, the material was investigated under neutron irradiation and high-energy ion irradiations. It was reported that the neutron irradiation caused swelling and catastrophic cracking. High-energy ions (30 keV He+) changed the surface morphology and caused the bright blue and brown colors on ZrB2 surfaces between 920 K and 1120 K. The electron irradiation tolerance of the material has not been reported yet. Here we used convergent beam electron diffraction (CBED) and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) to investigate structural tolerances of ZrB2 crystals under high-energy electrons at room temperature under vacuum. Finally, the investigation would benefit the understanding of its structural tolerance at microscales.
