Vanadium-based alloys such as V-4Cr-4Ti are of interest as candidates for low activation structural
materials for advanced nuclear reactors. One of the major challenges of vanadium-based alloys is
their thermal stability and improving their mechanical properties at higher temperature ranges (>
600 °C). This work explores re…
Whilst there is a clear scientific and technological need for the technical capabilities of transmission electron microscopes with in-situ ion irradiation, it also requires a collaborative community of international researchers to support such facilities in successfully meeting this demand. Instruments of this type serve to provide fundamental unde…
