Focused ion beam (FIB) – scanning electron microscopy (SEM) serial sectioning tomography has become an important tool for three‐dimensional microstructure reconstruction of solid oxide fuel cells (SOFC) to obtain an understanding of fabrication‐related effects and SOFC performance. By sequential FIB milling and SEM imaging a stack of cross‐section images across all functional SOFC layers was generated...
The detection of anti-neutrinos from nuclear reactors at close stand-off is a challenging measurement. The requirements for a remote monitoring device that could be used for close stand-off reactor core monitoring is difficult to meet with standard liquid scintillator technologies. Due to the low rate of anti-neutrinos detectable within 10 m from research reactors the detection efficiency has to be...
Systems based on 6LiF:ZnS(Ag) are good alternatives to 3He neutron detectors. Whilst the neutron absorption is well characterized in 6LiF:ZnS(Ag) layers, the detector efficiency is more likely to depend upon the light collection efficiency and light attenuation or uniformity across the active area - which can be large. We developed a segmented large area system (2 × 0.3 × 0.12) m comprising 16 neutron...
In this paper, AIM reports on γ, proton and heavy ion irradiation experiments on newly developed MCT VLWIR FPAs for Fourier transform infrared sounding applications from space in the 8–15µm spectral range. γ and proton irradiation testing have been carried out at operational temperatures with the FPAs biased. Key performance parameters such as dark current density and offset video level have been...
