Pure Er film shows classic columnar structure, while the Er deuteride film was observed as bamboo-like morphology. The in-situ X-ray diffraction results demonstrate that the diffraction peaks of 27.39°, 28.43°, 31.71°, and 39.95° are ascribed to the crystal planes of (002), (110), (111), and (112) of ErD3 phase, respectively. It is also confirmed that by in-situ X-ray diffraction technique, ErD3 grains would be dissociated at temperature exceeding 400 ℃. This result is consistent with the conclusion obtained by thermal desorption spectroscopy.展开更多
