“…LANL was previously tasked with developing a non-destructive method to assess zirconium coating thickness on co-rolled U-10Mo foils. A technique based upon measuring the ratio of characteristic fluorescent x-rays from the Zr coating and the U-10Mo core was developed and successfully demonstrated on co-rolled and plasma-sprayed foils [1][2][3][4]. Since no two XRF instruments are precisely identical, calibration of each individual unit using a set of independently-measured Zr foil standards is necessary for reliable thickness measurement.…”

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
