Abstract

Theory is developed for kinetics of the diffusion-controlled radiation defect accumulation in crystalline solids under high fluencies taking into account recently observed correlation between the defect diffusion energy and pre-exponential (known as the Meyer-Neldel rule in chemical kinetics) and their dependence on the radiation fluence (Kotomin et al., J Phys Chem A 122 (2018) 28). The predicted accumulation kinetics could be applied to all kinds of solids. It considerably differs from the commonly used, in particular, suggesting that concentration growth at high fluencies could be nonmonotonous and the saturation defect concentrations independent on the temperature.
