Enhanced Radiation Tolerance of Tungsten Nanoparticles to He Ion Irradiation

Enhanced Radiation Tolerance of Tungsten Nanoparticles to He Ion Irradiation

Materials exposed to plasmas in magnetic confinement nuclear reactors will accumulate radiation-induced defects and energetically implanted gas atoms (from the plasma and transmutations), of which insoluble helium (He) is likely to be the most problematic. The large surface-area-to-volume ratio exhi...
