Analysis of formation of primary radiation-induced point defects in graphite under action of secondary neutrons and {pi}{sup -}-mesons generated in various channels of nuclear reactions upon graphite irradiation by 450-GeV protons

Journal Article Ryazanov, A. I., E-mail: alexander.ryazanov@cern.ch ; Semenov, E V - Journal of Experimental and Theoretical Physics

A theoretical model is constructed and the rates of formation are calculated for primary radiation-induced point defects in graphite by secondary neutrons and {pi}{sup -}-mesons generated in various nuclear reaction channels upon irradiation of graphite by a 450-GeV proton beam. Calculations are performed using the ENDF-VII nuclear data base for energies of secondary particles lower than 150 MeV. It is shown that neutrons produce the highest generation rate of point radiation-induced defects in graphite (the rate of formation of defects under the action of neutrons is an order of magnitude higher than the corresponding value for {pi}{sup -}-mesons).

Irradiation-Induced Defect Evolution in Nuclear Graphite

Technical Report Chinnathambi, Karthik ; Ubic, Rick

Graphite has historically been used as a moderator material in nuclear reactor designs dating back to the first man-made nuclear reactor to achieve criticality (Chicago Pile 1) in 1942. Additionally, graphite is a candidate material for use in the future envisioned next-generation nuclear reactors (Gen IV); specifically, the molten-salt-cooled (MSR) and very-high-temperature reactor (VHTR) concepts. Gen IV reactor concepts will introduce material challenges as temperature regimes and reactor lifetimes are anticipated to far exceed those of earlier reactors. Irradiation-induced defect evolution is a fundamental response in nuclear graphite subjected to irradiation. These defects directly influence the many property changes ofmore »« less

Fullerene-like defects in high-temperature neutron-irradiated nuclear graphite

Journal Article Johns, Steve ; He, Lingfeng ; Bustillo, Karen ; ... - Carbon

Irradiation-induced defect evolution in graphite is particularly important for its application in graphite-moderated nuclear reactors. The evolution of defects directly influences macroscopically observed property changes in irradiated nuclear graphite which, in turn, can govern the lifetime of graphite components. This article reports novel defect structures and the irradiation response of microstructural features occurring in high-temperature irradiated nuclear graphite IG-110. High resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) was used to characterize specimens neutron-irradiated at a high temperature (≥ 800°C) at doses of 1.73 and 3.56 atomic displacements per atom (dpa). Concentric shelled and fullerene-like defects were found to result in swelling alongmore »« less

Effect of random inhomogeneities in the spatial distribution of radiation-induced defect clusters on carrier transport through the thin base of a heterojunction bipolar transistor upon neutron irradiation

Journal Article Puzanov, A. S. ; Obolenskiy, S. V., E-mail: obolensk@rf.unn.ru ; Kozlov, V. A. - Semiconductors

We analyze the electron transport through the thin base of a GaAs heterojunction bipolar transistor with regard to fluctuations in the spatial distribution of defect clusters induced by irradiation with a fissionspectrum fast neutron flux. We theoretically demonstrate that the homogeneous filling of the working region with radiation-induced defect clusters causes minimum degradation of the dc gain of the heterojunction bipolar transistor.

Effects of hole doping by neutron irradiation of magnetic field induced electronic phase transitions in graphite

Conference Singleton, John ; Yaguchi, Hiroshi

We have investigated effects of hole doping by fast-neutron irradiation on the magnetic-field induced phase transitions in graphite using specimens irradiated with fast neutrons. Resistance measurements have been done in magnetic fields of up to above 50 T and at temperatures down to about 1.5 K. The neutron irradiation creates lattice defects acting as acceptors, affecting the imbalance of the electron and hole densities and the Fermi level. We have found that the reentrant field from the field induced state back to the normal state shifts towards a lower field with hole doping, suggestive of the participation of electron subbandsmore » in the magnetic-field induced state.« less
