D-depth profiling in as-implanted and annealed Li-based breeder blanket ceramics

Abstract: HIGHLIGHTS• Three solid breeder blanket candidates were D-implanted and characterized by NRA at different annealing temperatures.• Lithium containing silicate and titanate ceramics with ratio 2Li:Si, 3Li:Si and lLi:Ti were fabricated.• The fabricated ceramics exhibit different porosity, grain size and density.• The ceramics were implanted with D: a complete outgas was observed at T > 200 °C.• Surface is crucial for the release kinetics and grain boundaries represent an alternative path to porous for diffusion.… Show more

“…Although this is a reasonable explanation for surface adsorption processes, further experiments should be conducted to establish whether the crystalline structure influences those processes at higher temperature. This statement is supported by recent experimental results of electrical conductivity [personal communication] and diffusion [7] on D 2 implanted pellets. The mobility of ionic species is enhanced in m-LiTi rather that in o-LiSi due to its layered structure, which favors the diffusive processes involving intrinsic and radiation-induced defects.…”

“…Indepth profiles of remaining D 2 obtained using the Resonant Nuclear Reaction Analysis at variable annealing temperatures show the fast D 2 migration through the ceramic, but the blocking effect of surface. Trapping sites at ceramic surface were causing the blockage of gas desorption although the amount of released D2 was very small at temperatures as low as 200 • C [7].…”

“…Figure 4 also stress a fairly symmetrical implantation profile from f f the maximum to both sample surface and bulk a homogeneous, concluding that heating seems not affecting the 3 He gas distribution along the sample thickness. For comparison, previous results [13] on D-implantation are discussed. D behaviour with temperature was studied in the past also in a MTi matrix with marked differences in the microstructure compared with the material used during these experiments.…”

“…Over the past few years, great attention has been paid to developments in the field of blanket ceramics, the interest in which is due to the possibilities and prospects for their use in thermonuclear energy [ 1 , 2 , 3 ]. As is known, thermonuclear energy is one of the most promising industries that can become an alternative to hydrocarbon fuel and, also, unlike nuclear energy, does not contain a large amount of nuclear long-lived waste.…”
