Research Abstract |
Iron and iron-based alloys are one of indispensable structural materials for nuclear reactors. In this work, to clarify the irradiation effects on the above materials, laser ablation technique, transmission electron microscopy, accelerator technique, molecular dynamics and isochronal annealing technique were applied. The laser ablation was developed to synthesize high purity thin films. In situ observations and measurements under ion irradiation were applied to detect microstructural evolutions and annealing stage of the crowdion-type interstitials, respectively. Molecular dynamics was developed to evaluate displacement threshold energy and multiple threshold events based on the motion of the crowdion-type interstitials.
