Formation of Aluminum-Copper Composite Using High-Current Electron Beam Irradiation

Pulsed high-current quasi-relativistic electron beam irradiation was used to study the formation mechanism of aluminum-copper composite. The composite was obtained through intense electron ablation and rapid solidification. The irradiation of the complex aluminum-copper target was performed using the TEMP facility with accelerating voltage of 350 kV, pulse duration of 5 μs, and beam current of 2 kA.
