Title: Radiation effects on transport and bubble formation in silicate glasses

Conference ·
OSTI ID:755878

Advanced Electron Paramagnetic Resonance spectroscopy (pulsed EPR, time-resolved EPR, high-frequency EPR, ENDOR) has been used to structurally characterize metastable point defects in irradiated alkali borate, silicate, and borosilicate glasses and to study mobile interstitial H atoms. In addition, the yield of radiolytic oxygen has been determined by outgassing. Several mechanisms for the defect formation in oxide glasses have been established.
