Abstract Following the IAEA Technical Meeting on'Advanced Methodologies for the Analysis
of Materials in Energy Applications Using Ion Beam Accelerators', this paper reviews the …

Yttria stabilized zirconia (YSZ) ceramics have been widely applied in areas of high-
temperature thermal protection and nuclear radiation protection during the past decades …

Refractory tungsten (W) is notoriously brittle at room temperature, which restricts its
workability and narrows the temperature range of critical applications. Here, we report a …

Finding high performance plasma-facing materials (PFMs) is one of the most important and
challenging tasks for realizing the commercial application of fusion reactors. Herein, we …

In this article, Y 2 O 3-reinforced tungsten composites are fabricated by using an improved
wet chemical method combined with the spark plasma sintering (SPS). Triethanolamine …

Nanostructured tungsten has been proposed as a promising option for plasma facing
materials in future fusion reactors, because compared to conventional tungsten it shows …

We investigate helium flux effects on helium transport and surface evolution in plasma-
facing tungsten using molecular dynamics. The simulations span two orders of magnitude …

Engineering materials for nuclear reactors exposed to high-dose irradiation breed various
radiation damage, leading to performance degradation of materials, which seriously limits …

Interfaces including grain boundaries and hetero‐phase interfaces could withstand the
radiation damage via providing sites for trapping the defects. With the urgent demand for …

Tungsten coatings with different surface morphologies and microstructures were prepared
on a reduced activation ferritic/martensitic steel CLAM by DC magnetron sputtering. The …
