One of the most compelling subjects is the deleterious effects of H on the microstructural evolution of materials; these effects include H embrittlement, superabundant vacancy formation, and blistering. Vacancies have been demonstrated through both experiments and computational simulations to have strong H trapping effects [1], resulting in increased H retention [2], gas-filled bubble formation [3-5], and surface modification [6-9]. In addition, at high temperatures and high H pressures, superabundant vacancy formation induced by H is observed [ 10,11 ]. Unfortunately, even though substantial research has been conducted on the interplay between H and vacancies [12-14], the detailed processes by which H-vacancy com- plexes nucleate, grow, and agglomerate remain unclear. In these processes, the energetics and structures of H-vacancy clusters are undoubtedly important.展开更多

We explore the variation of the anisotropic distribution of binding energies with the shapes and sizes of the 1/2[111] loop and the nonequivalent configurations of <111> SIAs. For an arbitrarily shaped loop, SIA can be more easily trapped in the concave region of the loop than the convex region, which forms a loop whose curvature is closer to that of a circular loop. The direction of SIAs can largely affect the interaction behaviors with the loop. The capture distance of an SIA by the edge of a circular-shaped 1/2[111] loop is clearly elongated along the direction of the SIA;however, it weakly depends on the size of the loop. Then, we analyze the slanted ring-like capture volume of <111> SIAs formed by the circular loop based on their generated anisotropic stress fields. Furthermore, the binding energies obtained from the elastic theory and atomistic simulations are compared. The results provide a reasonable interpretation of the growth mechanism of the loop and the anisotropic interaction that induces irregular-shaped capture volume, affording an insight into the numerical and Object Kinetic Monte Carlo simulations to evaluate the long-term and large-scale microstructural evolution and mechanical properties of W.展开更多

In a fusion environment, W will be in direct contact with heat flux, H/He particle fluxes, and the irradiation of high-energy neutrons, causing several defects to be generated, which decrease the service life of W materials. The grain boundary (GB), which is an important type of defect, affects the various physical and mechanical properties of ma- terials. In the nuclear environment, the GB can act as a sink for the defects when the material is under irradiation.展开更多
