Principal Investigator

Mary Bliss

Project type

Exploratory Research

This effort is to collect high resolution x-ray diffraction data to correlate with thermally stimulated current measurements. The samples are cadmium zinc telluride which have the potential to be…

Crystal orientation determination of a piezoelectric crystal

Lead Institution

Pacific Northwest National Laboratory

Principal Investigator

Mychailo Toloczko

Project type

Capability Research

The crystal orientation of a piezoelectric single crystal is to be determined in relation to the physical crystal surface. Orientation will be determined using a Laue backscatter device (x-ray…

Precursor Evolution and SCC Initiation of Cold-Worked Alloy 690 in Simulated PWR Primary Water

Lead Institution

Pacific Northwest National Laboratory

Principal Investigator

Karen Kruska

We suggest to use FIB/SEM sequential milling either manually or with the slice and view application to study stress corrosion cracking (SCC) precursors in cold-worked Alloy 690 specimens. Although to…

Methods for Determining the Irradiation Response of Structural Materials for Nuclear Reactor Core Structural Materials Development

Lead Institution

Pacific Northwest National Laboratory

Principal Investigator

Mychailo Toloczko

Current reactor concepts call for fuel cladding and duct to withstand up to as much as 500 dpa of neutron irradiation. Achieving such dose levels using neutrons is totally impractical due to the…
