NEUP CINR-19-16895: Irradiation of Optical Components of In-Situ Laser Spectroscopic Sensors for Advanced Nuclear Reactor Systems

This project will investigate the effect of radiation damage in optical materials on the operation and performance of laser spectroscopic sensors. Significantly beyond the scope of prior studies, this project will seek to understand the effect of simultaneous radiation damage and annealing on optical materials operated in high-temperature environments, and further evaluate the effect of irradiation on nonlinear optical absorption.
