Recent progress in the mechanical aspects of the surface exfoliation process under high-energy ion bombardments, including both blistering and flaking, is described in relation to a modern understanding of a fracture process for ductile materials. The model is based on a pressure-driven mechanism, quantitatively explaining the experimental results of blistering.
