Lead-cooled fast reactors (LFRs) are considered one of the most promising technologies to
meet the requirements introduced for advanced nuclear systems. LFRs have higher neutron …

Zr/Nb 6 multilayers of 6 nm periodicity, with well-composition-modulated structures, were
prepared by magnetron sputtering. Their microstructure and scratch properties were …

In this work, the radiation responses of Zr/Nb nanostructured metallic multilayers (NMMs) are
studied. The nanostructures with different layer thicknesses were deposited on Si (1 1 1) …

Tailoring interfaces is a powerful way of reducing the accumulation of radiation defects.
Understanding strain evolution induced by ion bombardment in nuclear materials with high …

In this study, single crystal (sc) and nanocrystalline (nc) 3C-SiC samples were subjected to
30 keV He ion irradiation across various doses while maintaining a temperature of 800° C …

Microstructure of radiation-induced Iron phases were investigated in a 6H-SiC subjected to
Iron and Helium bombardment with a damage level of 8 dpa. The microstructural evolution …

The application of LIGA Ni and nanocrystalline binary Ni-X (X= W, Mo, Fe) alloys in the micro-
electro-mechanical systems is severely limited due to their strength and ductility trade-off at …

To improve the ultra-high temperature oxidation and thermal shock resistance of Nb alloys,
we prepared a novel niobium-based oxide protective coating that forms three lines of …

Nanolayered metallic alloys are promising materials for nuclear applications thanks to their
resistance to radiation damage. Here, we investigate the effect of ion (C, Si, and Cu) …

The study explored the microstructure evolution of 6H-SiC that underwent sequential iron
and helium ion irradiation with energies of 2.5 MeV and 500 keV, respectively, at room …
