  1. 1. Radiation Effects on GaN-based HEMTs for RF and Power Electronic Applications

    University essay from KTH/Tillämpad fysik

    Author : Wilhelm Holmberg; [2023]
    Keywords : High Electron Mobility Transistor; HEMT; Gallium Nitride; GaN; Silicon Carbide; SiC; Proton Radiation; Galliumnitrid; GaN; Kiselkarbid; SiC; Kisel; Si; HEMT; Transistor; Protonstrålning;

    Abstract : GaN-HEMTs (Gallium Nitride-based High Electron Mobility Transistors) have, thanks to the large band gap of GaN, electrical properties that are suitable for applications of high electrical voltages, high currents, and fast switching. The large band gap also gives GaN-HEMTs a high resistance to radiation. READ MORE

    Abstract : The effect of proton (H+) irradiation on uranium mononitride (UN) and UN compositefuel with 10 at.% ZrN (UN10at%ZrN) was examined. Protons of 2 MeV with fluences of1E17, 1E18, 1E19 and 1E20 ions/cm2 were accelerated towards the fabricated samples in orderto investigate the evolution of the micro-structure. READ MORE

  4. 3. Effect of Proton Irradiation on the Mechanical Properties of Fe-10Cr-4Al in Liquid Lead

    University essay from KTH/Fysik

    Author : Gabriela Lapinska; [2023]
    Keywords : Fe-10Cr-4Al; Lead; Radiation Damage; Slow Strain Rate Testing; Fe-10Cr-4Al; bly; strålskador; Slow Strain Rate Testing;

    Abstract : Among the structural materials under consideration for future lead-cooled fastreactors, special attention is paid to ferritic Fe-10Cr-4Al due to its superior corrosionand erosion protective properties, as well as its insensitivity to liquid metalembrittlement in liquid lead. This thesis gives an inside look into the radiation damageproperties of the alloy and the possible embrittlement scenarios. READ MORE
