Monoclinic lithium metatitanate, β-Li2TiO3, is a member of the Li2MO3 (M = Ti, Mn, Sn, Ru, and/or Ir) series and an important cation conductor for various energy applications such as Li-ion batteries nuclear fusion reactors. Comprehensive knowledge crystal structure vital to understand diffusion mechanism, several possibilities were proposed previously. However, exact paths β-Li2TiO3 are still unclear. Here, results neutron diffraction study high-purity 7Li-enriched reported. The occupancy...
Trapping ions, such as deuterium and tritium, inside a potential well to generate neutrons is well-established technology through electric magnetic fields via the inertial electrostatic confinement fusion (IECF) tokamak, respectively. In IECF, straightforward configuration concentric cathode connected negative bias, surrounded by grounded anode that serves vacuum vessel. Theoretically, are generated vessel between ions accelerated applying several tens kV voltage mA current. Many parameters...
An inertial electrostatic confinement (IEC) fusion device accelerates ions, such as deuterium (D) or tritium (T), to produce nuclear and generate neutrons. The IEC's straightforward configuration consists of a concentric spherical transparent cathode at negative bias surrounded by grounded anode. effects properties on the neutron production rate (NPR) remain, date, inadequately studied. This study aims determine impact material NPR investigating reactions surface. Two buckyball-shaped...
Neutron irradiation of a molten salt tritium breeder is planned to evaluate accountancy in the liquid immersion blanket robust (LIBRA) project at MIT. A sealed-tube deuterium-tritium (DT) fusion neutron generator (NG) will be used for irradiation. Hence, NG's characterization necessary accountancy. Specifically, profile, energy, and flux are essential factors analysis experiment. This study aims investigate distribution around NG DT environment. First, neutrons on outer surface were measured...
In a solid breeding blanket, ceramic breeder pebbles are in contact with reduced activation ferritic martensitic (RAFM) steel at high temperatures for years and accordingly form corrosion layer on the blanket structural steel. Present study focuses characteristics of EUROFER97 RAFM by an advanced material Li2TiO3 excess Li (initial ratio Li/Ti = 2.2) 623, 823, 1073 K under sweep gas (He + 0.1% H2) flow. Formation thick oxide double was found surface EUROFER plates heated 823 K, while formed...
Abstract We report a neutronics study of blanket mock-up using discharge-type compact fusion neutron source. Deuterium–deuterium neutrons were irradiated to the mock-ups composed tritium breeder and reflector/moderator. The production rate (TPR) per source was measured by single-crystal diamond detector with 6 Li-enriched lithium fluoride film convertor after calibration process. Despite low yield, energetic alpha triton particles via Li(n, t) α capture as well 12 C elastic scattering...
A glow discharge (GD) fusion neutron source that utilizes nuclear reactions of deuterium has been upgraded. The in this device mainly occur by collisions between the charged or neutral particles and hydrogen isotopes trapped at surface electrodes. In addition, it is known metal hydride coating on electrode enhances production rate (NPR). Therefore, elemental distribution, including deuterium, depth direction an essential factor production. However, distribution not experimentally...
