Property changes of G347A graphite due to neutron irradiation

Journal Article Campbell, Anne A. ; Katoh, Yutai ; Snead, Mary A. ; ... - Carbon

A new, fine-grain nuclear graphite, grade G347A from Tokai Carbon Co., Ltd., has been irradiated in the High Flux Isotope Reactor at Oak Ridge National Laboratory to study the materials property changes that occur when exposed to neutron irradiation at temperatures of interest for Generation-IV nuclear reactor applications. Specimen temperatures ranged from 290°C to 800 °C with a maximum neutron fluence of 40 × 10²⁵ n/m² [E > 0.1 MeV] (~30dpa). Lastly, observed behaviors include: anisotropic behavior of dimensional change in an isotropic graphite, Young's modulus showing parabolic fluence dependence, electrical resistivity increasing at low fluence and additional increase atmore »« less

Development of mesopores in superfine grain graphite neutron-irradiated at high fluence

Journal Article Contescu, Cristian I. ; Arregui-Mena, José D. ; Campbell, Anne A. ; ... - Carbon

Microstructural changes induced by neutron irradiation of superfine grain graphite G347A (Tokai Carbon, Japan) were examined by nitrogen adsorption at 77 K and by three microscopy techniques (SEM, TEM and FIB-SEM tomography). The specimens were irradiated at doses of up to 30 dpa, covering stages before and after the turnaround fluence at three temperatures (300, 450, 750 °C) of their irradiation envelope. The initial graphite densification at low fluences did not produce any detectable effect in the pore size range (<350 nm) measured by gas adsorption. However, graphite irradiated at high fluences, after turnaround, showed severe structural changes. At allmore »« less

Site specific, high-resolution characterisation of porosity in graphite using FIB-SEM tomography

Journal Article Arregui-Mena, Jose' D. ; Edmondson, Philip D. ; Campbell, Anne A. ; ... - Journal of Nuclear Materials

Graphite is used as a moderator of fast neutrons in some types of nuclear reactors and for other industrial applications. The influence of smaller pores on the mechanical and physical properties of graphite remains to be fully understood. Here in this work, focused ion beam-scanning electron microscopy (FIB-SEM) tomography was applied to characterise the porosity of AGX graphite – an electrode material. FIB-SEM tomography consists in alternating the ion milling and SEM imaging at an area of interest with the objective of creating a 3D reconstruction. Regions containing a filler and a mixture of filler and binder were selected asmore »« less

Correlated SEM, FIB-SEM, TEM, and NanoSIMS Imaging of Microbes from the Hindgut of a Lower Termite: Methods for In Situ Functional and Ecological Studies of Uncultivable Microbes

Journal Article Carpenter, Kevin J. ; Weber, Peter K. ; Davisson, M. Lee ; ... - Microscopy and Microanalysis

The hindguts of lower termites harbor highly diverse, endemic communities of symbiotic protists, bacteria, and archaea essential to the termite's ability to digest wood. Despite over a century of experimental studies, ecological roles of many of these microbes are unknown, partly because almost none can be cultivated. Many of the protists associate with bacterial symbionts, but hypotheses for their respective roles in nutrient exchange are based on genomes of only two such bacteria. To show how the ecological roles of protists and nutrient transfer with symbiotic bacteria can be elucidated by direct imaging, we combined stable isotope labeling (¹³C-cellulose) ofmore »« less

Final Report - SRNL Agreement #AC51296V SEM, FIB, TEM Studies of CZT Samples

Technical Report Bradley, J ; Dai, Z R ; Graham, G A ; ...

The aims of this study are: (1) to characterize the surfaces of samples 3-7-8-3 and 4-1-3 using SEM, FIB and TEM techniques; (2) identify raised surface features; (3) prepare FIB-TEM lift-out sections from identified raised surfaces; and (4) perform detailed TEM characterization of FIB Sections. Focusing on the composition and crystallinity of the phases within the sections, including impurities.
