A major challenge for heat transfer in nuclear materials is to ensure thermal mobility after high amounts of neutron irradiation. Tungsten is widely selected as a heat transfer material in fusion reactors. In metals, thermal conductivity is dominated by electrons’ ability to transfer energy. Neutron irradiation generates point defects, c…

Reduced activation ferritic martensitic (RAFM) and oxide dispersion strengthened (ODS) steels are the most promising candidates for fusion first-wall/blanket (FW/B) structures. The performance of these steels will deteriorate during service due to neutron damage and transmutation-induced gases, such as helium/hydrogen, at elevated operating tempera…
