New Study Examines Helium Effects in Additively Manufactured Fe 9Cr Steel
A new Journal of Nuclear Materials paper from Kelsy Green’s thesis research investigates how helium co-implantation affects dislocation-loop evolution in ANA2, an additively manufactured Fe-9Cr steel.
The study used in situ TEM ion irradiation to follow microstructural changes during exposure. It brought together the University of Michigan, Argonne National Laboratory, and Theia Scientific, with support that included a DOE Small Business Innovation Research award. The collaboration connects advanced alloy development with direct observation of radiation-induced defects.
