,iftheiondoseislowerthan5×10￣17/cm2,thepatternsshowtypicalpolycrystallinediffractionfeaturewithrandomorientationandveryfinegrains(Figs.lbandlc),butfor1×10￣18/cm2iondose,somebrightspotsarise(Fig.ld),thismeansthatsomerelativelargegrainsformedinsampleunderirradiation.FromtheX-raydiffractogramofthesampleirradiatedbyheliumiontodoseof5×10￣17/cm2,thediffractionpoaksarestillamorpohousfeatureandnonewpeaks.Itispredictedthatthecrystallizationonlyoccursintheprojectedrangeofions.2.2AnalysisofprecipitationphaseFromindexingofdiffractionringsinFig.lbandFig.lc,theprecipitatephaseisanfcccrystallinestructure.InFig.ld,anadditionalbccphaseisfound(ring3,ring5andring8).Thecalculatedlatticeparametersforprecipitatephasesundervariousiondosesareasfollows:5×1016/cm2a=0.412nm(fcc)l×1017/cm2a=0.42lnm(fcc)5×1017/cm2a=0.428nm(fcc)l×1018/cm2a=0.478nm(fcc)a=0.292nm(bcc)UsingASTMindex,itisidentifiedthatthebccphaseisα-Fe(a=0.2866nm).Todeterminethefccprecipitatephase,weinspectedallcompoundswithfcccrystallinestructurecomposedofelementsFe,Ni,SiandB,foundthatthreecompoundsFeSi(a=0.446nm),FeNi3(a=0.353nm)andFe3Si(a=0.564nm),butthemostfavourablecompoundwasFeSi.Therefore,itisassumedthatthepreferentialprecipitatephaseisFeSi,andisfollowedbytheeutectcphaseα-Feundertheheliumionirradiation.2.3HeliumbubbledistributionThemorphologiesofheliumbubblesformedbyagglomerationofimplantedheliumionsareshowninFig.2.Thesmallblackdotspresentbubblesunderbrightfieldwiththeunderfocusingoperation.FromFig.2,itisrevealedthatbubbleslowerthedensity,butinflateinthedimensionwiththeincreaseiniondose.Moreover,underthehigherdosethebubblesjoinedtogether.Fig.3plotsthechangesofdensitiesanddiametersofbubbleswiththeiondose.ItisevidentthatthecriticaldosetoformbubblesinFe38Ni39Si10B13islowerthan5×1016/cm2,whichisslightdifferentfrom1×1017/cm2reportedbyTyagi[1].3.DiscussionAstheresultsreportedbyGusevaandGordeeva[4],theheliumirradiationcantrulybringonthepartialcrystallizationinmetallicglassFe38Ni39Si10B13belowitsordinarythermalcrystallizationtemperature.GusevaandGordeevaconfirmedthattheprecipitatesinFe40Ni40B20wasα-Fephaseunderheliumionirradiationof40keVenergyand5μA/cm2currentdensity,inwhichthetemperaturerisingofthesampleswaslowerthan200℃.Howerve,inpresentexperiment,thoughα-Fephaseisdetermined,notraceofM3B,M2BandMBprecipitatephaseisobserved,whichwasreportedbyaboveauthorsunderirradiationwithenergyof40keVandioncurrentdensityof30μA/cm2.Inaddition,theprecipitationprocessinpresentexperimentissomewhatdifferentfromtheprecipitationprocessreportedbyaboveauthors,thepreferentialprecipitationphaseisFeSi,andfollowedbytheeutecticphaseα-Fe.CrystallizationofamorphousFe40Ni40B20wasnotobservedbyTyagi,whichwasthesamematerialasthatusedbyGusevaandGordeeva,undertheirradiationwith100keVionenergyand30μA/cm2ioncurrentdensity[3].Itmayrelatetothetemperaturerisingofsamplesorsomethingelse.Accordingtothecomparisonandanalysis,itmaybeconcludedthatthecrystallizationofmetallicglassesisverysensitivetothetemperaturerisinginsamplescausedbyionbeamirradiation.ThereasonofthepreferentialphasetobeFeSiandfollowedα-Femaybethatinanamorphousmaterial,themetalloidelementsshouldkeepatthetotalcontentsabove20at%,otherwisesomeelementsorcompoundswillprecipitatetoremainthebalanceofchemicalcomposition.Therefore,astheprecipitationofFeSianddeclineofSicontentsinasample,FeandNimayprecipitateasaneutecticphaseaccordingtoaboveidea.Inthisexperiment,Feprecipitatedfirstly.ThedifferenceoflatticeparametersbetweenexperimentaldataandASTMstandarddatamayresultsintheexistencesofNiandBetcandincompletecrystallizationinsample.Thegeneralviewpointforirradiation-assisted-crystallizationofmetallicglassbelowtheirthermalcrystallizationtemperatureisthedisplacementdamagesinducedbycollosion-cascadebetweenincidentionsandtargetatoms.Thedisplacementdamagesprovidethenucleatingcentresandtheirradiation-assistedmigrationincreasesthecrystallizeddrivingforce,butnodirectrelationshipbetweenheliumandcrystallization.Thegrowthofagrainiscloselyattributedtothediffusionofneighbouringatomstothegrowingnucleus,whichisreliedonthetemperatureextremely,accordingly,thecrystallizationofmetallicglassisverysensitivetothetemperaturerisingfromionbeambombardmentinanirradiatedsample.4.Summary(l)TheFe38Ni39Si10B13metallicglasswillcrystallizebelowitsordinarythermalcrystallizationtemperatureunderheliumionirradiationwith100keVenergyand6μA/cm2ionbeamcurrentdensity.(2)ThepreferentialprecipitationphaseofthemetallicglassisFeSi,andfollowedbyaneutecticphaseα-Fe.(3)Thecriticaldoseformingheliumbubblesinthemetallicglassisabout5×1016/cm2,whichisslightlylowerthanthedosereportedbyTyagi.(4)Theirradiation-assisted-crystallizaofametallicglassesisverysensitivetothetemperaturerisingcausedbyionbeambombardmentinanirradiatedsample.Acknowledgements─TheauthorswouldliketothankthecolleaguesofIonImplantationGroupinChinaInstituteof.AtomicEnergy.forhelpinginsampleirradiation,alsotoProfe
