In-situ TEM observation was conducted during Ni+ &He+ dual-beam irradiation to monitor
the evolution of dislocation loops accompanied by He bubbles in the Ni-based alloy …

In this study, we demonstrate the methodology systematically developed for dislocation loop
(perfect and faulted loops) imaging and analysis in irradiated face-centered-cubic (FCC) …

Micro-alloying strongly affects the incubation period of void swelling in irradiated face-
centered cubic materials. However, the underlying mechanism, which relates to the …

A major issue of in-situ radiation damage studies is related to the influence of free surfaces.
Free surfaces in thin foils are indeed strong sinks for radiation-induced defects …

The nuclear industry has growing interest in replacing forgings with structural components
fabricated by powder metallurgy with hot isostatic pressing (PM-HIP), owing to their chemical …

In the quest of radiation and oxidation-resistant materials for the fuel claddings of nuclear
power stations, chromium (Cr) emerges as a good candidate. It shows a significantly lower …

In the present work, microstructure and mechanical properties of a binary Ni-20 wt% Cr alloy
manufactured by laser powder bed fusion process were investigated. It was shown that this …

To fully understand the tritium aging behavior of palladium (Pd), an important material
applied in hydrogen isotope storage and tritium engineering, an in situ irradiation of 30 keV …

Radiation-induced segregation (RIS) of solutes in materials exposed to irradiation is a well-
known problem. It affects the lifetime of nuclear reactor core components by favoring …

Nuclear power plays a key role as renewable energy in alleviating the worldwide energy
shortage. The material degradation caused by high-temperature and high-flux neutron …
