(Fusion Power CDT) Temperature-dependent defects and light gas element loading in beryllium-titanium ordered alloy TiBe12 for neutron breeding (Materials strand project)
University of Sheffield
School of Chemical, Materials and Biological Engineering
The MBe. 12. ordered intermetallic (beryllide) is the main stable component of many Be-transition metal alloy systems that are emerging as strong candidates for neutron breeding to enable on-site tritium replenishment in large fusion reactors such as DEMO and JA-DEMO. Read more
