Prediction of material performance in fusion reactor environments relies on computational
modelling, and will continue to do so until the first generation of fusion power plants come on …

The development of high-entropy alloys (HEAs) focuses on exploring compositional regions
in multi-component systems with all alloy elements in equal or near-equal atomic …

SPPARKS is an open-source parallel simulation code for developing and running various
kinds of on-lattice Monte Carlo models at the atomic or meso scales. It can be used to study …

Tungsten is the primary candidate materials for the high neutron flux, high temperature
components of a future demonstration fusion reactor. Despite this, there is a lack of data on …

A sumanene derivative functionalized with triphenylbenzene units was found to exhibit
aggregation-induced emission enhancement (AIEE). A disaggregation process after the …

Grain boundaries (GBs) are believed as potent defect sinks that contribute to the radiation
damage reduction of materials. The defect-GB interaction has been extensively studied in …

Understanding how properties of materials change due to nuclear transmutations is a major
challenge for the design of structural components for a fusion power plant. In this study, by …

Here, we introduce a discontinuous spinodal reinforcement strategy in the novel candidate
plasma facing material (PFM) of tungsten-chromium alloys. Thermal ageing of a W-34wt …

In this study, radiation-induced precipitation of transmutation products is addressed via the
development of a new solute and vacancy concentration dependant Ising model for the W …

Due to its great performance, tungsten (W) and W-based alloys have been considered as
the candidates for plasma-faced materials in future fusion reactors. However, the radiation …
