Scientific paper

Different techniques of the X-ray Diffraction Line Profile Analysis (XRDLPA) have been used to assess the microstructure of the irradiated Zr-1.0%Nb-1.0%Sn-0.1%Fe alloy. The domain size, microstrain, density of dislocation and the stacking fault probabilities of the irradiated alloy have been estimated as a function of dose by the Williamson-Hall Technique, Modified Rietveld Analysis and the Double Voigt Method. A clear signature in the increase in the density of dislocation with the dose of irradiated was revealed. The analysis also estimated the average density of dislocation in the major slip planes after irradiation. For the first time, we have established the changes in the electron density distribution due to irradiation by X-ray diffraction technique. We could estimate the average displacement of the atoms and the lattice strain caused due to irradiation from the changes in the electron density distribution as observed in the contour plots.
