Helium release from neutron-irradiated Li2O single crystals

Dissociation mechanism of H2 molecule on the Li2O/hydrogenated-Li2O (111) surface from first principles calculations

“…17 The formation and properties of radiation-induced defects and radiolysis products have been investigated extensively. [18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25] The tritium (T) generated by the 6 Li(n,a) 3 H reaction mainly exists as the hydroxyl group -OT on the surface of lithium oxide. [26][27][28][29][30] The interaction of hydrogen and its isotopes with the Li 2 O surfaces have been investigated using Fourier transform infrared absorption spectroscopy (FT-IR), [27][28][29][30][31] thermal desorption spectroscopy (TDS), 32,33 and work function measurements.…”
