Characterization techniques for assessing irradiated and ageing materials in nuclear power plant systems, structures and components (SSC)

In recent years, several techniques have been able to provide information on the microstructure or chemical composition of materials with a lateral resolution better than 100. nm. Some methods can even consistently reach atomic resolution both in 2D and 3D. This chapter will review several of these...

description In recent years, several techniques have been able to provide information on the microstructure or chemical composition of materials with a lateral resolution better than 100. nm. Some methods can even consistently reach atomic resolution both in 2D and 3D. This chapter will review several of these high-spatial resolution techniques and how they have been successfully applied to the understanding of degradation of materials from nuclear reactors. Recent advances and future prospects will also be discussed. © 2010 Woodhead Publishing Limited All rights reserved.
