“…64 This observation is in agreement with systematic small displacements of U atoms from fcc positions evidenced by x-ray, neutron, and electron diffraction analyses. 8,[20][21][22][23][24]29,30,[65][66][67][68][69][70][71][72][73][74][75][76][77][78][79] ͑ii͒ The channeling yield on U atoms in both investigated planes is largely enhanced with respect to UO 2 with typical values 0.40 and 0.45 for ͑001͒ and ͑110͒ planes, respectively. Thus, both monoelemental ͕100͖ U planes as well as dielemental ͕110͖ planes are distorted due to displacements of U atoms in the U 4 O 9−y crystal.…”
