The lack of suitable materials solutions stands as a major challenge for the development advanced nuclear systems. Most issues are related to simultaneous action high temperatures, corrosive environments and radiation damage. Oxide nanoceramics promising class which may benefit from tolerance nanomaterials chemical compatibility ceramics with many highly environments. Here, using thin films model system, we provide new insights into oxide exposed increasing damage levels at 600 °C -namely...
The electronic properties of Fe islands grown on reconstructed Au(111) were investigated by means scanning tunneling spectroscopy and density-functional theory calculations. A characteristic peak measured in the electron local density states at Fermi level indicates presence a nondispersive minority ${d}_{{z}^{2}}$ state. energy was to shift from occupied unoccupied as function position within islands. We related this effect reconstruction-induced Fe-Fe bond length variation.
