A. N. Didenko, Y. P. Sharkeyev, E. In. Kozlov, A. and . Ryabchikov . Tomsk: NTL Publishing House, 2004. - 328 pages . The book is devoted to the description of a new fundamental phenomenon that occurs during ion implantation of crystalline bodies - the effect of long-range action in metal materials. The results of systematic complex experimental studies of the authors are presented, an overview of published literary data is given, and ideas about the physical nature of the effect of long-range action in metal materials during ion implantation are developed. A mathematical model of the dynamic movement of dislocations from the ion-alloyed layer to the underlying layers. is proposed. It is shown that due to a change in the defective structure in the near-surface layer of the iopno-implapsible target, there is also a change in mechanical properties .. A theoretical scheme is proposed to link the ion implantation modes and parameters of the initial state of the target with changes in the mechanical properties of the irradiated metal. The book is intended for specialists in the field of condensed matter physics and physics of the interaction of streams of accelerated charged particles and plasma with a solid body, for graduate students and students specializing in relevant specialties.
