Detrapping of vacancies atIn111in quenched silver

Abstract

The isothermal recovery of a quenched Ag foil doped with ${}_{}{}^{111}{}_{}{}^{}\mathrm{In}$ has been studied through the time-differential perturbed-angular-correlation technique. A nearest-neighbor-vacancy configuration has produced a quadrupole interaction frequency, ${\nu }_Q=166\mathrm{}\pm 3$ MHz, and a detrapping vacancy process has been detected with $E_d=1.09\mathrm{}\pm 0.05$ eV. The results are discussed and compared with previous measurements.
