Abstract
Self-bonded SiC has been irradiated at 250° and 700°c to fast neutron doses of 4·77 × 1020 and 1·98 × 1020 n.v.t. respectively. The unit cells of the phases present (Si, α- and β-SiC) have been measured after irradiation and after various post-irradiation heat treatments. Under certain conditions the Si and α-SiC lattice parameters decreased below their unirradiated values.Keywords
