abstract = {We have examined the irradiation response of a titanate and
zirconate pyrochlore—both of which are well studied in the
literature individually—in an attempt to define the
appearance of defect fluorite in zirconate pyrochlores. To
our knowledge this study is unique in that it attempts to
discover the mechanism of formation by a comparison of the
different systems exposed to the same conditions and then
examined via a range of techniques that cover a wide length
scale. The conditions of approximately 1 displacement per
atom via He2+ ions were used to simulate long term waste
storage conditions as outlined by previous results from
Ewing in a large enough sample volume to allow for neutron
diffraction, as not attempted previously. The titanate
sample, used as a baseline comparison since it readily
becomes amorphous under these conditions behaved as
expected. In contrast, the zirconate sample accumulates
tensile stress in the absence of detectable strain. We
propose this is analogous to the lanthanide zirconate
pyrochlores examined by Simeone et al. where they reported
the appearance of defect fluorite diffraction patterns due
to a reduction in grain size. Radiation damage and stress
results in the grains breaking into even smaller
crystallites, thus creating even smaller coherent
diffraction domains. An (ErNd)2(ZrTi)2O7 pyrochlore was
synthesized to examine which mechanism might dominate,
amorphization or stress/strain build up. Although strain was
detected in the pristine sample via Synchrotron X-ray
diffraction it was not of sufficient quality to perform a
full analysis on.},
