Abstract—Electron microscopy was used to study microstructural changes in the near-surface layers of molyb-
denum subjected to a high-dose implantation with Zr+ + N+ ions with various combinations of ion-beam treat-
ment parameters. Interaction of molybdenum with the elements of the implanter vapor phase (C, N) is found to
be an important factor determining structural and phase modification in the ion-implanted layer. Mechanisms
of this modification are shown to be a function of the parameters of the ion-beam treatment (the composition
of the implanter gaseous phase, ion energy, average ion-current density, and target temperature). The role of
these parameters in the phase and structural modification of the molybdenum ion-implanted layer is analyzed.
