Zirconium nitride (ZrN) is a promising matrix candidate for advanced nuclear fuels and transmutation of minor actinides. This study investigates the displacement process induced by low-energy recoils in ZrN usingab initiomolecular dynamics (AIMD) simulations to evaluate the threshold displacement energy (Ed). Observations of the collision processes of primary knock-on atoms (PKAs) for both Zr and N atoms were performed for seven different directions: [100], [110], [111], [210], [211], [221], and [321], which cover most regions of the stereographic triangle. The values ofEdranged from 15 eV to 50 eV, and the collision processes were dependent on the crystallographic orientations. The weighted average values ofEdevaluated from the PKA directions investigated in this study were 33 eV and 29 eV for the Zr and N atoms, respectively. Anti-site defects were not formed for either Zr or N PKAs. Sequential replacement collisions along the [110] atomic row played an important role in the collision process, providing a lower value ofEdin the crystallographic directions. Furthermore, configurations of interstitials were different between the Zr and N atoms, which also influencedEdvalues.
