Diffusion of Krypton in Cesium and Rubidium Iodide; A Comparison of Results Obtained Following Reactor Irradiation and Ion Bombardment

Abstract: The present study shows that under suitably chosen conditions, the same results of rare gas diffusion coefficients can be obtained in samples which are reactor irradiated to produce a homo-geneous concentration of rare gas, and in samples that are labeled with rare gas by controlled ion bombardment. In the present study, the diffusion of krypton in Rbl and Csl was found to follow the empirical rule of yielding activation enthalpies in the range (1.4±0.2) x 10

Xenon‐133 diffusion coefficients were measured in single crystals of KI, RbI, and CsI over the temperature range of 150 to 500 °C. Xenon was incorporated in the crystals both by doping with precursor I133 and by fission recoil from an external fissionable source. Consistent diffusion results were obtained which yielded single values for the diffusion activation energy over the temperature range of measurement. A gas concentration effect which was attributed to gas atom clustering was observed at concentrations as low as 10−9 gas atom fraction. Diffusion results were found to be most consistent with a model in which gas atoms associate with mobile defect clusters and diffuse with the clusters through the crystal lattice.

The diffusion of 133Xe in single‐crystal UO2 was studied following the recoil injection of the 133Xe from an external fissionable source. This technique was selected to minimize the diffusion path to a free surface and decrease the possibility of gas‐atom trapping during the diffusion anneals. Gas release results consistent with classical diffusion solutions were obtained over the entire heating cycle for each release curve and no “burst effect” was observed. The results were consistent with D = 2.88 × 103 exp [(−4.78 ± 0.15) eV/kT] cm2s−1 over the temperature range 1065 to 1300 °C. Increasing the recoil concentration to 3 × 1012 fission fragments cm−2 (3 × 10−8 fission atom fraction) produced anomalies in the gas release curves which probably resulted from gas‐atom trapping. Using parameters measured elsewhere for rare gas trapping in UO2 and CaF2, it was shown that many of the rare gas diffusion coefficients reported in the literature for UO2 appear to be too low as a consequence of gas‐atom trapping.
