As a quick and affordable experimental technique, the heavy ion irradiation method may quickly learn about the correlation between the degree of amorphization and structural modification of samples with varying ion implantation. Using the heavy ion irradiation technique, the irradiation stability of multiphase ceramic waste made of Ln 2 Zr 2 O 7 /SrZrO 3 was assessed. Here, we found that multiphase ceramic waste forms still exhibit excellent radiation resistance while achieving high capacity and weak selectivity for immobilization of actinide nuclides (simulated by lanthanide elements) and fission products 90Sr (replaced by 89Sr). The analysis of grazing incidence and Raman spectroscopy provides evidence for explaining the radiation damage mechanism caused by 84Kr15+ heavy ions. Analysis of grazing incidence offers proof of the manner and extent of radiation damage brought on by 84Kr15+ ions. The impact and mechanism of crystal structure on radiation resistance in multiphase ceramics are discussed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
