| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We studied the physical/chemical property change and radiation damage processes, which are expected to occur during fusion reactor operation, in solid breeding materials. In Li2TiO3, it was found that the hydrogen inventory on the surface is several tens times of the number of atoms on the topmost surface. Even for materials of the same grain size, the surface inventory can differ by several times, according to the physical/chemical condition of the surface. In the bulk, the tritium inventory will increase and the tritium diffusivity will decrease during the reactor operation, due to the Li deficiency induced by the lithium burning. Regarding radiation damages, Li2O deficiency, which is caused by the lithium burning and subsequent hydrogen release, and Ti anti-site defect are important. Especially, the antis-site defect should play a key role because it is easily formed by displacement and it largely changes the material property.
