Heavy ion irradiation simulation of high dose irradiation induced radiation effects in materials

Materials used for ADS, ITER, fast reactor, etc suffer very high dose irradiations of protons and/or neutrons. The yearly accumulated irradiation doses could reach a couple of hundred dpa in ADS, ~40 dpa in fast reactors and ~30 dpa in ITER’s DEMO, producing severe radiation damage in materials a...

Description
Summary:Materials used for ADS, ITER, fast reactor, etc suffer very high dose irradiations of protons and/or neutrons. The yearly accumulated irradiation doses could reach a couple of hundred dpa in ADS, ~40 dpa in fast reactors and ~30 dpa in ITER’s DEMO, producing severe radiation damage in materials and leading to a breakdown or accident of these installations. Investigation of such high dose irradiation induced radiation damage is a currently interesting topic with great importance. It is deeply hampered for lack of high dose neutron and proton sources. The heavy ion irradiation simulation technique has been developed at HI-13 tandem accelerator to investigate radiation damage encountered in the above mentioned installations. An experiment was carried out to verify the reliability and validity of heavy ion irradiation simulation. A series of experiments were performed by heavy ion irradiation simulation in combination with positron annihilation lifetime spectroscopy to investigate the temperature and dose dependence of radiation damage in stainless steels, tungsten, tantalum, etc. Some experimental results will be presented and discussed.
