Beam-contamination-induced compositional alteration and its neutron-atypical consequences in ion simulation of neutron-induced void swelling

JG Gigax, H Kim, E Aydogan, FA Garner… - Materials Research …, 2017 - Taylor & Francis
Although accelerator-based ion irradiation has been widely accepted to simulate neutron
damage, neutron-atypical features need to be carefully investigated. In this study, we have …

Micro-and mesoscale mechanical properties of an ultra-fine grained CrFeMnNi high entropy alloy produced by large strain machining

JG Gigax, O El-Atwani, Q McCulloch, B Aytuna, M Efe… - Scripta materialia, 2020 - Elsevier
Large strain machining (LSM), an attractive severe deformation technique due to its simplicity,
has been previously used to produce a fine-grained structure in a variety of alloys. An …

Micropillar compression response of femtosecond laser-cut single crystal Cu and proton irradiated Cu

JG Gigax, H Vo, Q McCulloch, M Chancey, Y Wang… - Scripta Materialia, 2019 - Elsevier
Femtosecond laser cutting has been used to fabricate micro- and mesoscale specimens for
mechanical testing, but the impact on mechanical properties has not been fully evaluated. …

Temperature dependent dispersoid stability in ion-irradiated ferritic-martensitic dual-phase oxide-dispersion-strengthened alloy: Coherent interfaces vs. incoherent …

T Chen, JG Gigax, L Price, D Chen, S Ukai, E Aydogan… - Acta Materialia, 2016 - Elsevier
In this study, the microstructure of a 12Cr ferritic-martensitic oxide-dispersion-strengthened (ODS)
alloy is studied before and after Fe ion irradiation up to 200 peak displacements per …

Radiation response of Ti2AlC MAX phase coated Zircaloy-4 for accident tolerant fuel cladding

JG Gigax, M Kennas, H Kim, T Wang, BR Maier… - Journal of Nuclear …, 2019 - Elsevier
A Ti 2 AlC MAX phase material was deposited on Zircaloy-4 substrate using the cold spray
process, with the goal of enhancing the accident tolerance of zirconium-alloy fuel cladding in …

Radiation instability of equal channel angular extruded T91 at ultra-high damage levels

JG Gigax, H Kim, T Chen, FA Garner, L Shao - Acta Materialia, 2017 - Elsevier
Although several studies have shown that nano-grained alloys have higher radiation
resistance than coarse-grained variants, with dense grain boundary structures acting as defect …

A quinary WTaCrVHf nanocrystalline refractory high-entropy alloy withholding extreme irradiation environments

…, N Krienke, JD Poplawsky, AA Kohnert, J Gigax… - Nature …, 2023 - nature.com
In the quest of new materials that can withstand severe irradiation and mechanical extremes
for advanced applications (eg. fission & fusion reactors, space applications, etc.), design, …

The influence of ion beam rastering on the swelling of self-ion irradiated pure iron at 450 C

JG Gigax, E Aydogan, T Chen, D Chen, L Shao… - Journal of Nuclear …, 2015 - Elsevier
Ion beam scanning or “rastering” is a technique that is frequently used to uniformly cover a
larger specimen area during ion irradiation. In this study, we addressed the effects of rastered …

Sizing up mechanical testing: Comparison of microscale and mesoscale mechanical testing techniques on a FeCrAl welded tube

JG Gigax, AJ Torrez, Q McCulloch, H Kim… - Journal of materials …, 2020 - cambridge.org
