V-Cr-Ti alloys have been proposed as candidate structural materials in fusion reactor blanket concepts with operation temperatures greater than that for reduced activation ferritic martensitic steels (RAFMs).
The microreactor design addresses the need to understand molten salt-assisted electrochemical processes at a controlled scale, enabling real-time observation of structural changes and kinetics.
Sintering additives to improve densification and microstructure control of UN provides a facile approach to producing high quality nuclear fuels.
With the ever-growing reliance on batteries, the need for the chemicals and materials to produce these batteries is also growing accordingly. One area of critical concern is the need for high quality graphite to ensure adequate energy storage capacity and battery stability.
Test facilities to evaluate materials compatibility in hydrogen are abundant for high pressure and low temperature (<100C).
A bonded carbon fiber monolith was made using a coal-based pitch precursor without a binder.
When a magnetic field is applied to a type-II superconductor, it penetrates the superconductor in a thin cylindrical line known as a vortex line. Traditional methods to manipulate these vortices are limited in precision and affect a broad area.
The first wall and blanket of a fusion energy reactor must maintain structural integrity and performance over long operational periods under neutron irradiation and minimize long-lived radioactive waste.
In order to avoid the limitations and costs due to the use of monolithic components for chemical vapor deposition, we developed a modular system in which the reaction chamber can be composed of a top and bottom cone, nozzle, and in-situ reaction chambers.
Molecular Beam Epitaxy is a traditional technique for the synthesis of thin film materials used in the semiconducting and microelectronics industry. In its essence, the MBE technique heats crucibles filled with ultra-pure atomic elements under ultra high vacuum condition
