ATF Cladding Mechanical Properties Report: Capability Demonstration

This report documents mechanical testing capability demonstration activities performed in fiscal year (FY)2025 at Oak Ridge National Laboratory(ORNL)on chromium-coated (Cr-coated) and uncoated advanced zirconium alloy claddings irradiated in the High Flux Isotope Reactor (HFIR) to approximately 4 displacements per atom (dpa), corresponding to ~13GWd/t burnup. Specimens were prepared in axial tension (ATT) and ring tension (RTT) geometries, and passive silicon carbide(SiC)thermometry (TM) was employed to determine irradiation temperatures, which averaged 38–43 °C below the 330 °C design target. Mechanical testing at ambient temperature demonstrated the expected irradiation-induced hardening, with yield strength(YS)and ultimate tensile strength(UTS)values increasing substantially relative to unirradiated counterparts. However, this strengthening was accompanied by a reduction in ductility, as indicated by lower uniform and total elongations(UE and TE). Both coated and uncoated claddings exhibited similar mechanical response, though Cr-coated specimens showed surface cracking perpendicular to the loading direction, attributable to the hardness mismatch between the coating and substrate. Fracture in all cases remained ductile, and no coating spallation was observed following HFIR irradiation. Complementary efforts were directed toward the fabrication of test specimens from commercially irradiated cladding (rod 47I, ~31.1 GWd/t average burnup). Axial sectioning and computer numerical control(CNC)machining successfully produced ATT geometries suitable for benchmarking against HFIR-irradiated specimens. This capability enables direct comparison of cladding behavior between test reactor and commercial reactor environments, thereby supporting the validation of HFIR as a surrogate irradiation platform for accident tolerant fuel (ATF) development. Once HFIR irradiations are completed in FY26,the relevant comparison tests will be completed. Collectively, the FY 2025 PIE campaign has provided mechanical performance data for irradiated advanced claddings The demonstrated capabilities support the framework for mechanical testing and further evaluations in subsequent years. These efforts will represent an important contribution toward the licensing and deployment of Cr-coated zirconium alloy cladding as a near-term ATF solution.

Increase of carbonyl fluoride (COF2) in the stratosphere and its contribution to the 1992 budget of inorganic fluorine in the upper stratosphere

Volume mixing ratio profiles of COF2 have been derived through most of the stratosphere between 30 deg N and 54 deg S from series of 0.01-/cm resolution infrared solar spectra recorded in the occultation mode by the atmospheric trace molecule spectroscopy (ATMOS) instrument during the ATLAS 1 space shuttle mission of March-April 1992. When compared with similar results obtained from the ATMOS/Spacelab 3 mission of April-May 1985, the cumulative increase in the burden of COF2 in the middle and upper stratosphere was found to be 67% for that 7-year time interval. By combining a subset of these COF2 results with upper stratospheric concentrations of HF also derived from the ATMOS observations, it was further found that the budget of inorganic fluorine above 35 km altitude increased by (60 +/- 10)% over the 1985-1992 time interval, which corresponds to an average exponential rate of increase of (6.7 +/- 1/1)%/yr, or a linear rate of increase reference to 1985 of (8.5 +/- 1.3)%/yr at the 1 sigma confidence level. The total inorganic F atom volume mixing ratio found in the upper stratosphere for 1985 and 1992 and the increase during this perid mirror the rise in man-made fluorine-bearing compounds at the ground during the early to mid 1980s. This demonstrates the negligible impact of natural sources of fluorine, in particular volcanic activity, on the observed change in F in the upper stratosphere. Implications of the present findings and comparison with model results are discussed.

Increase of carbonyl fluoride (COF2) in the stratosphere and its contribution to the 1992 budget of inorganic fluorine in the upper stratosphere

Volume mixing ratio profiles of COF2 have been derived through most of the stratosphere between 30 deg N and 54 deg S from series of 0.01-cm(exp -1) resolution infrared solar spectra recorded in the occultation mode by the atmospheric trace molecule spectroscopy (ATMOS) instrument during the ATLAS 1 space shuttle mission of March-April 1992. When compared with similar results obtained from the ATMOS/Spacelab 3 mission of April-May 1985, the cumulative increase in the burden of COF2 in the middle and upper stratosphere was found to be 67% for that 7-year time interval. By combining a subset of these COF2 results with upper stratospheric concentrations of HF also derived from the ATMOS observations, it was further found that the budget of inorganic fluorine above 35 km altitude increased by (60 +/- 10) % over the 1985-1992 time interval, which corresponds to an average exponential rate of increase of(6.7 +/- 1.1) % /yr , or a linear rate of increase referenced to 1985 of (8.5 +/- 1.3) % /yr at the 1(sigma) confidence level. The total inorganic F atom volume mixing ratio found in the upper stratosphere for 1985 and 1992 and the increase during this period mirror the rise in man-made fluorine-bearing compounds at the ground during the early to mid 1980s. This demonstrates the negligible impact of natural sources of fluorine, in particular volcanic activity, on the observed change of F in the upper stratosphere.

Preliminary Spectroscopic Measurements for a Gallium Electromagnetic (GEM) Thruster

As a propellant option for electromagnetic thrusters, liquid ,gallium appears to have several advantages relative to other propellants. The merits of using gallium in an electromagnetic thruster (EMT) are discussed and estimates of discharge current levels and mass flow rates yielding efficient operation are given. The gallium atomic weight of 70 predicts high efficiency in the 1500-2000 s specific impulse range, making it ideal for higher-thrust, near-Earth missions. A spatially and temporally broad spectroscopic survey in the 220-520 nm range is used to determine which species are present in the plasma and estimate electron temperature. The spectra show that neutral, singly, and doubly ionized gallium species are present in a 20 J, 1.8 kA (peak) are discharge. With graphite present on the insulator to facilitate breakdown, singly and doubly ionized carbon atoms are also present, and emission is observed from molecular carbon (CZ) radicals. A determination of the electron temperature was attempted using relative emission line data, and while the spatially and temporally averaged, spectra don't fit well to single temperatures, the data and presence of doubly ionized gallium are consistent with distributions in the 1-3 eV range.

Two-step route to size and shape controlled gibbsite nanoplates and the crystal growth mechanism

Mastery of gibbsite (α-Al(OH) 3 ) nucleation and crystal growth is significant in fundamental aluminum chemistry and also beneficial for industrial applications and the remediation of nuclear waste. Herein, we developed an additive-free two-step route to size and morphology controlled synthesis of gibbsite nanoplates. Independent temperature manipulation of nucleation and crystal growth regimes was used to control the efficacy and yield of the process, producing gibbsite nanoplates with tunable morphologies and sizes. We achieve morphologies ranging from hexagon, pseudo hexagon, truncated triangle to rhombic, and average basal plane diameters from 120 to 850 nm, with thicknesses between 8 and 45 nm. Analysis of gibbsite structure, size and morphology with techniques including powder X-ray diffraction (p-XRD), 27 Al magic angle spinning nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MAS NMR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and atomic force microscopy (AFM) provided key details on the nucleation and crystal growth mechanisms. The results indicate the temperature of the nucleation aging step is the most important factor controlling the final particle size. Particularly small nanoplates were obtained with a low nucleation aging temperature followed by high crystal growth temperature, suggesting that gibbsite growth can be approximated via a LaMer-type burst nucleation and crystal growth mechanism. Scalability was demonstrated by triplicate of 2 L experiments which prepared gibbsite nanoplates of ~200 nm size and with an average yield of ~55% after 84 h. Compared to existing techniques, this improved two-step route is cheaper, more efficient and environmentally friendly.

Fingerprinting Superconductors by Disentangling Andreev and Quasiparticle Currents Across Tunable Tunnel Junctions

Tunneling Andreev reflection (TAR) spectroscopy provides a new approach to identify superconducting pairing symmetry at the atomic scale. Using atomistic superconducting transport simulations, we reveal the mechanism by which TAR can distinguish between pairing symmetries, which is complementary to traditional conductance-based techniques. In particular, owing to the additivity of the excess tunneling decay rate, the TAR spectrum is a weighted average of the contributions from quasiparticle currents, Andreev reflection, and higher-order scattering processes, and their relative weights depend on both the superconducting order parameter and the coupling strength. Within the local tunneling model, TAR dominates mid-gap conductance for s-wave superconductors, is suppressed for d-wave, and coexists with quasiparticle tunneling in sign-changing symmetries if the expectation value for the superconducting gap remains finite. Meanwhile, higher-order processes generally enhance the TAR signal when GN exceeds approximately 0.1G0. As a result, TAR provides a rich spectral fingerprint of the underlying pairing symmetry and electronic structure, enabling atomically resolved identification of unconventional superconducting states.

Elemental composition of solar energetic particles in 1977 and 1978

Measurements of the elemental composition of energetic nuclei with atomic numbers between 2 and 28 from seven major solar flares from September 1977 to May 1978 are presented. The abundance observations were made with the Low Energy Telescope systems of the cosmic ray detector systems on board the Voyager 1 and 2 spacecraft between 1 and 3 AU. Examination of the abundance ratios of the flare nuclei relative to oxygen reveals significant variations from event to event and between energetic nuclei and photospheric abundances, with an average composition, except for C and N, very similar to that of the galactic cosmic ray source. For the four flare events for which the elemental abundances exhibit no significant energy dependence in the energy range observed, it is found that the enhancement of energetic nuclei relative to their photospheric abundance are similar and not monotonic with atomic number, with the metallic nuclei showing an enhancement factor of approximately 5 and the volatiles showing one closer to 1.

Entrapped Molecule‐Like Europium‐Oxide Clusters in Zinc Oxide with Nearly Unaffected Host Structure

Abstract Nanocrystalline ZnO sponges doped with 5 mol% EuO 1.5 are obtained by heating metal–salt complex based precursor pastes at 200–900 °C for 3 min. X‐ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, and extended X‐ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) show that phase separation into ZnO:Eu and c ‐Eu 2 O 3 takes place upon heating at 700 °C or higher. The unit cell of the clean oxide made at 600 °C shows only ≈0.4% volume increase versus undoped ZnO, and EXAFS shows a ZnO local structure that is little affected by the Eu‐doping and an average Eu 3+ ion coordination number of ≈5.2. Comparisons of 23 density functional theory‐generated structures having differently sized Eu‐oxide clusters embedded in ZnO identify three structures with four or eight Eu atoms as the most energetically favorable. These clusters exhibit the smallest volume increase compared to undoped ZnO and Eu coordination numbers of 5.2–5.5, all in excellent agreement with experimental data. ZnO defect states are crucial for efficient Eu 3+ excitation, while c ‐Eu 2 O 3 phase separation results in loss of the characteristic Eu 3+ photoluminescence. The formation of molecule‐like Eu‐oxide clusters, entrapped in ZnO, proposed here, may help in understanding the nature of the unexpected high doping levels of lanthanide ions in ZnO that occur virtually without significant change in ZnO unit cell dimensions.

Oxide dispersoid coherency of a ferritic-martensitic 12Cr oxide-dispersion-strengthened alloy under self-ion irradiation

Ferritic-martensitic oxide-dispersion-strengthened (ODS) alloy has shown excellent mechanical property and high radiation tolerance. However, the stability of dispersoids during displacive irradiation in the individual ferritic and martensitic phases is unclear. In this work, the correlation among dispersoid coherency, size, density, and matrix phase are studied in dual-phase 12Cr ODS after 100 peak displacements-per-atom (dpa) irradiation at 475°C, using 3.5 MeV Fe 2+ self-ions. The size and density changes of coherent and incoherent dispersoids were analyzed as a function of irradiation depth. The average dispersoid size decreased after irradiation in both phases, and the large incoherent dispersoids in the tempered martensite phase underwent a more dramatic change than those in the ferrite phase. The dispersoid density significantly increased in the ferrite phase within the irradiated region, mostly resulting in an increase in coherent dispersoid density. On the other hand, only a small change in density was observed in the tempered martensite phase for both coherent and incoherent dispersoids. This study shows that dispersoid evolution is dramatically different in ferrite and tempered martensite phases.

Viscoelastic Response of Dispersed Entangled Polymer Melts

Any polymer synthesis routes result in molecular weight dispersity DAI, depending on the polymerization mechanism. The lowest dispersity polymers are those made by anionic and atom-transfer radical polymerization, which exhibit relatively narrow distributions DM=g,„1A172 — 1.02-1.04. This small divergence from monodispersity results in significant number of molecules that differ in their molecular weight from the average and their impact on the viscoelastic response remains an open question. Here the effects of low dispersity on stress relaxation and shear viscosity of entangled melts are studied using a coarse-grained model for polyethylene. Polymer melts with chain length dispersity set to follow a Schulz-Zimm distribution of Dm = 1.0 — 1.16 for an entangled polyethylene melt using molecular dynamic simulations. The systems were studied to times up to 800 ,us which is beyond the terminal time. These systems are compared to those with binary and ternary distributions. The stress relaxation functions were extracted from the Green-Kubo relation and from stress-strain relaxation following a uniaxial extension. We find on the entanglement time scale, both the mean squared displacement and the stress relaxation are independent of D m . The tube diameter and the rubbery plateau for entangled dynamics do not depend on D m . At longer times, the terminal relaxation time decreases as the faster motion of the shorter chains results in constraint release for the longer chains. Probing this low dispersity regime opens the way to evaluate the degree of dispersity that affects mechanical properties.

High-resolution infrared spectroscopy of jet cooled cyclobutyl in the α-CH stretch region: large-amplitude puckering dynamics in a 4-membered ring radical

We report gas-phase cyclobutyl radical (c-C 4 H 7 ) is generated at a rotational temperature of T rot = 26(1) K in a slit-jet discharge mixture of 70% Ne/30% He and 0.5–0.6% cyclobromobutane (c-C 4 H 7 Br). A fully rovibrationally resolved absorption spectrum of the α-CH stretch fundamental band between 3062.9 cm −1 to 3075.7 cm −1 is obtained and analyzed, yielding first precision structural and dynamical information for this novel radical species. The α-CH stretch band origin is determined to be 3068.7887(4) cm −1 , which implies only a modest (≈0.8 cm −1 ) blue shift from rotationally unresolved infrared spectroscopic studies of cyclobutyl radicals in liquid He droplets [ A. R. Brown, P. R. Franke and G. E. Douberly, J. Phys. Chem. A , 2017, 121 , 7576–7587]. Of particular dynamical interest, a one-dimensional potential energy surface with respect to the ring puckering coordinate is computed at CCSD(T)/ANO2 level of theory and reveals a double minimum C s puckered geometry, separated by an exceedingly shallow planar C 2v transition state barrier (E barr ≈ 1 cm −1 ). Numerical solutions on this double minimum potential yield a zero-point energy for the ground state (E zero-point ≈ 27 cm −1 ) greatly in excess of the interconversion barrier. This is indicative of highly delocalized, large amplitude motion of the four-membered ring structure, for which proper vibrationally averaging of the moment of inertia tensor reproduces the experimentally determined inertial defect remarkably well. Finally, intensity alternation in the experimental spectrum due to nuclear spin statistics upon exchange of three indistinguishable H atom pairs (IH = ½) matches K a + K c = even : odd = 36 : 28 predictions, implying that the unpaired electron in the radical center lies in an out-of-plane p π orbital. Thus, high-resolution infrared spectroscopy provides first experimental confirmation of a shallow double minimum ring puckering potential with a highly delocalized ground state wave function peaked at a planar C 2v transition state geometry consistent with a cyclobutyl π radical.

Nanoscale structural correlations in a model cuprate superconductor

Understanding the extent and role of inhomogeneity is a pivotal challenge in the physics of cuprate superconductors. While it is known that structural and electronic inhomogeneity is prevalent in the cuprates, it has proven difficult to disentangle compound-specific features from universally relevant effects. Here, in this study, we combine advanced neutron and x-ray diffuse scattering with numerical modeling to obtain insight into bulk structural correlations in HgBa 2 ⁢ CuO 4+δ . This cuprate exhibits a high optimal transition temperature of nearly 100 K, pristine charge-transport behavior, and a simple average crystal structure without long-range structural instabilities, and is therefore uniquely suited for investigations of intrinsic inhomogeneity. We uncover diffuse reciprocal-space patterns that correspond to prominent nanoscale correlations of atomic displacements perpendicular to the CuO 2 planes. The real-space nature of the correlations is revealed through three-dimensional pair distribution function analysis and complementary numerical refinement. We find that relative displacements of ionic and CuO 2 layers play a crucial role, and that the structural inhomogeneity is not directly caused by the presence of conventional point defects. The observed correlations are therefore intrinsic to HgBa 2 ⁢ CuO 4+δ , and thus likely important for the physics of cuprates more broadly. It is possible that the structural correlations are closely related to the unusual superconducting fluctuations and Mott-localization in these complex oxides. As advances in scattering techniques yield increasingly comprehensive data, the experimental and analysis tools developed here for large volumes of diffuse scattering data can be expected to aid future investigations of a wide range of materials.

Analytical calculation of muon intensities under deep sea-water

The study of the energy loss of high energy muons through different materials, such as rock and sea-water can cast light on characteristics of lepton interactions. There are less ambiguities for the values of atomic number (Z) and mass number (A) in sea-water than in rock. Muon intensities should be measured as fundamental data and as background data for searching the fluxes of neutrino. The average range energy relation in sea-water is derived. The correction factors due to the range fluctuation is also computed. By applying these results, the intensities deep under sea are converted from a given muon energy spectra at sea-level. The spectra of conventional muons from eta, K decays have sec theta enhancement. The spectrum of prompt muons from charmed particles is almost isotropic. The effect of prompt muons is examined.

Enthalpy Distributions of Arc Jet Flow Based on Measured Laser Induced Fluorescence, Heat Flux and Stagnation Pressure Distributions

The centerline total enthalpy of arc jet flow is determined using laser induced fluorescence of oxygen and nitrogen atoms. Each component of the energy, kinetic, thermal, and chemical can be determined from LIF measurements. Additionally, enthalpy distributions are inferred from heat flux and pressure probe distribution measurements using an engineering formula. Average enthalpies are determined by integration over the radius of the jet flow, assuming constant mass flux and a mass flux distribution estimated from computational fluid dynamics calculations at similar arc jet conditions. The trends show favorable agreement, but there is an uncertainty that relates to the multiple individual measurements and assumptions inherent in LIF measurements.

Downscaling of Non-Van der Waals Semimetallic W 5 N 6 with Resistivity Preservation

The bulk phase of transition metal nitrides (TMNs) has long been a subject of extensive investigation due to their utility as coating materials, electrocatalysts, and diffusion barriers, attributed to their high conductivity and refractory properties. Downscaling TMNs into two-dimensional (2D) forms would provide valuable members to the existing 2D materials repertoire, with potential enhancements across various applications. Moreover, calculations have anticipated the emergence of uncommon physical phenomena in TMNs at the 2D limit. Here, in this study, we use the atomic substitution approach to synthesize 2D W 5 N 6 with tunable thicknesses from tens of nanometers down to 2.9 nm. The obtained flakes exhibit high crystallinity and smooth surfaces. Electrical measurements on 15 samples show an average electrical conductivity of 161.1 S/cm, which persists while thickness decreases from 45.6 to 2.9 nm. The observed weak gate-tuning effect suggests the semimetallic nature of the synthesized 2D W 5 N 6 . Further investigation of the conversion mechanism elucidates the crucial role of chalcogen vacancies in the precursor for initiating the reaction and strain in propagating the conversion. Our work introduces a desired semimetallic crystal to the 2D material library with mechanistic insights for future design of the synthesis.

Molecular Origins of Temperature-Dependent X-ray Absorption in YAG:Dy

The absorption and emission of X-rays in dysprosium-doped yttrium aluminum garnet (YAG:Dy) has produced unexpected thermographic behavior, which is investigated using a combination of finite temperature ab initio molecular dynamic simulations, structural characterization, and electronic structure calculations of X-ray characteristics. Calculated average peak X-ray absorption spectra (XAS) from simulations between 300 and 600 K result in peak intensity loss due to thermalization effects, matching experimentally measured behavior of YAG:Dy. Here, investigation of atomic snapshots indicates structural factors that correlated with the X-ray behavior, with the first Y–O coordination sphere identified as the primary structural feature unique to high XAS intensity as calculated by radial and pair distribution functions.

In-situ Characterizations of Microstructural Degradation of Perovskite Solar Cells

Rapid progress has been achieved in perovskite solar cells (PSCs), and their efficiencies have improved from 3.8 % to 24.2 % in less than a decade. With low-cost processing, PSCs have shown exciting photovoltaic (PV) properties, such as effective optical absorption, a long carrier lifetime, and unique defect tolerance. While recent studies demonstrated improved stability up to 100 days, PSC technology is still challenged to meet the stringent industry requirements for commercialization. Despite considerable efforts, the underlying physical mechanisms for the inferior stability of PSCs are not well understood. One reason for this divergence is that many established measurement techniques (e.g., quantum efficiency, photoluminescence) probe the properties on length scales far greater than that of electronic and/or structural inhomogeneity (i.e., < 1 μm near grain boundaries) and therefore characterize convoluted and/or averaged properties. Ion/electron beam-based techniques have been extensively used to access the microstructures of PSCs, enabling atomic/nanoscale structural, chemical, optical, and electrical characterizations. For example, focused ion beam (FIB) milling produces an atomically smooth surface that minimizes the artifacts attributed to the surface roughness. FIB techniques can also create a well-defined cross-section of PSCs without mechanical damage in a physical cleaving sample preparation. While powerful, there are some concerns about possible beam damage of inorganic-organic perovskites via chemical-bond breakage and local heating. This project aims to comprehensively understand how the microstructural/interfacial properties of PSCs (e.g., Methylammonium Lead Iodide [MAPbI 3 ]) are modified under the irradiating ion beams. Specifically, we investigate the sub-surface properties of PSCs before and after Ar-ion beam injections. Kelvin probe force microscopy (KPFM) measures the contact potential differences (CPDs). Photoluminescence (PL) microscopy in conjunction with Finite-Difference Time-Domain (FDTD) simulations infers the formation of a “dead layer” (< 15 nm) on the subsurface of MAPbI 3 during Ar+ milling processes while preserving the initial bulk properties. The x-ray photoemission spectroscopy (XPS) confirms this modified surface is a lead-rich and iodine-deficient surface. We initiate customizing in-situ measurement setup while measuring the local optical and electrical properties of PSC under thermal (cooling, heating) and light stressors. Our results provide in-depth knowledge of the ion-beam impact on metal-halide perovskites and how this modified sub-surface impacts their properties under accelerated stressors of light and heat. Intensive Monte Carlo simulations of an electron beam interacting with PSCs provide the beam energy distribution in PSCs, proposing possible measurement conditions of using e-beam with minimizing beam damage. Our in-situ measurement platform can accommodate the diverse architecture of PSC devices for studying deterioration mechanisms under mixed environmental stressors.
