This book describes the interaction between ions and metallic targets as well as energy loss processes during ion implantation and irradiation. Ion bombardments of targets cause changes in surface layer chemical composition, radiation defect formation, sputtering, blistering, swelling and ion mixing. These effects modify surface topography, crystalline structure, electrical and tribological properties of metals and alloys. The book presents research on the effects of the implantation and irradiation on the friction and wear of modified materials, as well as practical applications of ion implantation and irradiation. It offers a review of current problems related to the modification of materials via irradiation. In addition, computer programs for modeling the depth of ions and vacancies in a sample are presented, and potential causes of disagreement between modeling and experimental results are described. Finally, the book provides evidence of the long-range effect.

Effect of Ion Irradiation on the Properties of Metals and Alloys is aimed at academics investigating the properties of metals and alloys after irradiation and/or implantation as well as for students of engineering and physical and chemical sciences. The book is also useful for those looking for up-to-date information on these methods and ways of solving related problems, and for designers of equipment used in places exposed to high ion irradiation or to cosmic space.

Piotr Budzyński, DSc, PhD, Eng, was born in 1971. He graduated from the Mechanical Engineering Faculty at the Lublin University of Technology, where he has been a researcher and academic since 1995. From 2012 to 2020, he held the position of Vice Dean for Scientific Affairs, and in 2020, he was appointed President of the Mechanical Engineering Discipline Council. The Mechanical Engineering Faculty at the Lublin University of Technology is currently one of the leading mechanical engineering research units in Poland. In 2011, he defended his postdoctoral dissertation titled “The Problems of Friction and Wear of Ion-Implanted Metallic Materials in Mechanical Engineering”. His research interests focus on the improvement of tribological properties of the surface layer in different materials via ion implantation. His recent studies are devoted to the effects of swift-ion irradiation on the properties of materials used in the space technology and in the design of accelerators and nuclear reactors. His research interests also include the design of electronic measuring equipment. He coauthored 58 research publications in journals indexed in the Scopus database as well as two patents and three utility models. He was awarded fellowships at the Horia Hulubei National Institute for R&D in Physics and Nuclear Engineering and the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research.
