Type: EUROfusion
Project duration: 2021 - 2025
Project manager: Prof. E.A. Kotomin, ISSP, UL
Total funding: 530 KEUR
Project summary:
This project is part of the Eurofusion research on new advanced materials for DEMO reactors. Our main focus is on optical and dielectric materials, including Al2O3 (corundum), MgAl2O4 spinel, amorphous SiO2. The main problem is understanding of the radiation induced damage in these materials under different types of irradiation (neutrons, electrons, ions, protons) and their degradation. To this aim, we combine a number of the best experimental and theoretical methods, to characterize radiation defects and their evolution. Our partners in this project include leading experts from Spain, France, Poland, Hungary, Germany, Estonia etc.
