摘要
Following the concept of percolation-type transition in zircon under radiation damage suggested previously, the general simulation model of irradiated material is proposed. The model naturally gives rise to swelling of the undamaged crystalline part of irradiated material. X-ray scattering profiles are calculated and show broadening that increases with radiation damage, in good agreement with published experimental x-ray diffraction data on zircon. The effect of percolation on material bulk properties is studied. (C) 2000 American Institute of Physics. [S0021-8979(00)08711-9].
