Under MeV electron irradiation, only single or, at most, double atom displacements of constituent elements can occur by the knock-on mechanism. Figure 1 shows a schematic illustration of the atomic defects in single-element crystalline and amorphous phases introduced by the electron knock-on effect. In the crystalline phases (a), not only a vacancy but also an interstitial is introduced under the irradiation, where the existence of an interstitial can be ignored in materials without irradiation. A vacancy type of a free volume like defect and an interstitial type of anti free volume like defect [1-4] are introduced in an amorphous phase under the irradiation (b). Figure 2 shows the schematic illustration of the defects in multi-component amorphous alloy. One can notice that many type defects can be considered in an amorphous phase. The concept of two-type defects is important for clarifying the mechanis of the irradiation induced crystallization of an amorphous phase.
