| Abstract Scope |
Over the past few decades, advanced characterization techniques have significantly accelerated materials development. Often, correlative techniques combined with other experimental properties are key to bridging the gap between fundamental mechanisms and materials behavior in commercial nuclear reactor environments. In-situ irradiation combined with microscopy can play a key role as irradiation kinetics with time resolution are expensive due to the nature and cost of irradiations. In this talk we will discuss some key issues in the commercial reactor community, and propose how in-situ microscopy techniques could be leveraged to further our understanding of these materials and enhance commercialization of new materials for reactor environments. |
