Graphite single crystals have been studied by dark field transmission electron microscopy after irradiation with fast neutrons between 5.2×l017and 1.5×1020n/cm2at temperatures below 150°C. Subsequent annealing has been investigated up to 2000°C. For comparison, specimens irradiated by electrons, C12-ions and fission fragments have been studied. Contrast effects have been calculated by means of the kinematical theory of electron diffraction. The distribution of vacancies was studied by a surface etch and surface decoration technique. All the observations are compatible with the assumption of the primary formation of independent interstitials and vacancies and subsequent clustering of only the interstitials. Only a small fraction of these clusters can be resolved by electron microscopy; these contain about 1 per cent of the originally displaced atoms. At a dose above 1020n/cm2more complex phenomena are observed.
