Thesis
Radiation damage of superconducting materials for fusion application
- Abstract:
-
Superconducting wires are a key enabling technology for generating electricity from fusion reactions as they can carry high current densities in high magnetic fields, allowing them to make better use of the limited space available in a tokamak and improve its power density. This thesis focused on REBCO coated conductors (CC) as, despite its documented deterioration during neutron irradiation, it is the superconductor of choice for several tokamak power plant (TTP) concepts due to reliable ...
