Cross-sectional helium irradiation reveals interface-controlled bubble evolution in Cr/CrAlSiN multilayer coatings on zirconium alloys

Renda Wang, Xue Bai, Xueliang Pei +9

The irradiation stability of Cr based protective coatings on zirconium alloys is critical for the development of accident-tolerant fuel claddings. However, conventional surface irr…
