Abstract

1-MeV electron irradiation of hydrogenated Zr3Al (Zr3AlH0.96) at 10K is studied. A more than 20 fold reduction in the critical dose required for complete amorphization is observed for the hydrogenated specimen as compared to the un-hydrogenated Zr3Al under identical irradiation conditions.
