NEUP CINR-20-19188: Single- and Polycrystalline Diamond Electrodes for Spectroelectrochemical Characterization of Various Molten Salts

Optically transparent electrodes will be developed for spectroelectrochemical measurements in chloride- and fluoride-based radioactive molten salts. The primary electrode material will be boron-doped diamond. Measurements will elucidate important electrochemical properties of nuclear fuel and fission products such as redox potential, diffusion coefficient, and electron transfer stoichiometry. This will be completed as a function of molten salt composition and temperature.
