| Abstract Scope |
Materials under extreme environments of radiation, temperature, pressure and others, are often challenging to characterize. This difficulty in characterization is due to multiple structural and chemical changes taking place in the material simultaneously and that too at different spatial scales, ranging from few 10’s of microns down to single atom level (e.g. vacancies/interstitials). Moreover, studying the dynamic evolution of these structural and/or chemical changes makes it even more difficult. It is almost impossible that one particular characterization technique will give a complete and thorough picture of these changes.
In this presentation, a combination of atom probe tomography, small angle scattering (X-ray and neutron), positron annihilation spectroscopy and transmission electron microscopy, to effectively characterize the material at different spatial scales will be discussed with few examples. All these techniques have their own merits and demerits, but can be used in tandem to complement each other, eventually providing the unprecedented information. |
