NEUP CINR-20-19373: Connecting Advanced High-Temperature X-ray and Raman Spectroscopy Structure/Dynamics Insights to High-Throughput Property Measurements

We will acquire molten salt structure and dynamics data at high-temperatures using high-energy x-ray techniques and Raman spectroscopy and relate them to their physical and chemical properties. High-throughput techniques will be developed to rapidly measure multiple high-temperature properties at one time. An understanding of the relationship of salt structure and dynamics to its properties will help to select and optimize melt chemistry in molten salt reactors.
