Abstract:Modified lithium orthosilicate (Li 4 SiO 4 ) pebbles with additions of titanium dioxide (TiO 2 ) are designed as a possible tritium breeder ceramic for the helium cooled pebble bed (HCPB) test blanket module. Additions of TiO 2 were chosen to enhance mechanical properties of the tritium breeder pebbles. The formation of radiation defects (RD) in the modified Li 4 SiO 4 pebbles with a different content of TiO 2 was studied by X-ray induced luminescence (XRL) technique. After XRL measurements the accumulated RD … Show more
