Irradiated 304 and 316 stainless steel samples were investigated. The steels were neutron irradiated to 1.5 and 7.5 dpa at 550 K. Similar types of steels were irradiated at 550 K with 590 MeV protons in the PIREX facility at PSI, Switzerland. The doses rea ...
A high power radiation source in the THz range with long pulse and narrow line width is required for diagnosing fusion type plasmas by collective Thomson scattering. Gyrotrons currently meet the requirements concerning power, pulse length and line width wh ...
LiF:Mg,Cu,P phosphors (commercially designated as MCP-N) are very sensitive thermoluminescent detectors and are considered by many laboratories to hold great promise for low level radiation monitoring. It is their high efficiency relative to TLDs based on ...
Total reflection X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy (TXRF) has been used in combination with synchrotron radiation in order to determine detection limits and lowest limits of concentration of trace elements in metal matrices. Two applications on irradiated ma ...
This contribution describes the results of impurity seeding experiments using neon gas injection into the private fl zone of an ohmically heated TCV single null lower, deuterium fuelled, open divertor configuration. In these first experiments, neon has bee ...
The mechanical properties of 590 MeV proton irradiated pure cl-iron have been investigated after irradiation at 320, 420 and 520 K to doses between 10(-5) and 10(-1) dpa. For comparison, corresponding rests were carried out on unirradiated iron specimens. ...
It is demonstrated that during the first few picoseconds after resonant femtosecond excitation the secondary radiation from a strongly coupled semiconductor microcavity containing one quantum well is dominated by Rayleigh scattered light. At early times af ...
We investigate the nonlinear drift response of electrons in Si, GaAs, and InP crystals to high-power electromagnetic waves by means of a Monte Carlo technique, with the aim of developing an efficient frequency converter for 1 THz output radiation. Drift ve ...
Transitions from bound atomic Rydberg Stark states in a static electric field to autoionizing Rydberg states above the electric-field-induced ionization threshold are studied using a broadband, tunable free-electron laser (photon energy 160-1400 cm(-1), pu ...
The time-resolved secondary emission of resonantly created excitons in GaAs quantum wells is studied using femtosecond up-conversion spectroscopy. The behaviour of the rise and decay of the secondary emission and reflectivity in quantum welts is strongly d ...
