The International Fusion Materials Irradiation Facility (IFMIF) is an intense high-energy neutron source dedicated to the development and qualification of materials for the first generation of fusion reactors. The target facility will consist of a high flu ...
Low activation ferritic/martensitic steels are good candidates for the future fusion reactors, for, relative to austenitic steels, their lower damage accumulation and moderate swelling under irradiation by the 14 MeV neutrons produced by the fusion reactio ...
Molecular dynamics simulation is one of the most useful methods to model defect generation and subsequent change in mechanical properties in material that will suffer irradiation in the future fusion reactors. This work is aimed at showing the influence of ...
The first high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (TEM) cross-section images of flexible electrodes fabricated by gold ion implantation at 5 keV into polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) are presented. A TEM sample preparation method based on cryoultramicr ...
The effects of neutron irradiation on austenitic stainless steels, usually used for the manufacturing of internal elements of nuclear reactors (e.g. the core shrouds), are the alteration of the microstructure, and, as a consequence, of the mechanical prope ...
Self-assembly in the bulk of a series of hybrid triblock copolymers formed by a poly(9,9-dihexylfluorene-2,7-diyl) (PHF) middle block and two poly(gamma-benzyl-L-glutamate) (PBLG) end blocks has been studied. Since the alpha-helical secondary structure of ...
OBJECT: Use of polyethylenimines (PEIs) of different molecular weight and selected carboxylated-PEI derivatives (PEI-COOH) in the synthesis and stabilization of iron oxide nanoparticles, to obtain possible multifunctional contrast agents. MATERIALS AND MET ...
Magnetic diagnostics for the new generation fusion reactor “ITER” are required to be extremely reliable since they provide measurements essential for reactor operation and protection, plasma control and for measurement of several parameters fundamental to ...
Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations, performed with embedded atom potentials, are used to understand the formation of defects following displacement cascades in Ni. Different empirical potentials, presenting large differences in stacking fault energy (SFE) ...
Electron microscopy (TEM) and electron spin resonance ESR) were applied to characterize lanthanum metallofullerene(La@C82)-filled peapods. The peapods were prepared by encapsulation of La@C82 in SWCNTs, which were obtained by laser ablation technique in th ...
