Fragile 3D Order in V 1 - x Mo x O 2

The metal-to-insulator transition in rutile VO2 has proven uniquely difficult to characterize because of the complex interplay between electron correlations and atomic structure. Here, we report the discovery of the sudden collapse of three-dimensional order in the low-temperature phase of V1-xMoxO2 at x = 0.17 and the emergence of a novel frustrated two-dimensional order at x = 0.19, with only a slight change in electronic properties. Single crystal diffuse x-ray scattering reveals that this transition from the 3D M1 phase to a 2D variant of the M2 phase results in long-range structural correlations along symmetry-equivalent (11L) planes of the tetragonal rutile structure, yet extremely short-range correlations transverse to these planes. These findings suggest that this two dimensionality results from a novel form of geometric frustration that is essentially structural in origin.

Irradiation Demonstration Element Design Parameters for MURR LEU U-Mo Fuel Conversion

This report contains the results of reactor design and performance calculations for conversion of the University of Missouri Research Reactor (MURR ® ) from the use of highly-enriched uranium (HEU) fuel to the use of low-enriched uranium (LEU) fuel. The analyses were performed by staff members of the U.S. Department of Energy National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA) Office of Material Management and Minimization (M3) Reactor Conversion Program at the Argonne National Laboratory and the MURR Facility.

LEU-Mo Casting Update

The Y-12 National Security Complex (Y-12) participates in the Fuel Fabrication Pillar of the National Nuclear Security Administration’s (NNSA’s) Office of Material Minimization and Management (M3) Office of Conversion Pillar. Y-12’s primary responsibility is to establish the fabrication process for the low-enriched uranium-molybdenum (U-10Mo) feedstock.
