Comparative study of H accumulation in differently oriented grains of Cu

A. Lopez-Cazalilla, Catarina Serafim, F. Djurabekova +3

When metal surfaces are exposed to hydrogen ion irradiation, the light ions are expected to penetrate deep into the material and dissolve in the matrix. However, these atoms are se…
