A series of model Fe–Cr alloys containing 3–18 at.% Cr was neutron irradiated at a nominal temperature of 563 K to 1.82 dpa. Solute distributions were analyzed by atom probe tomography, which revealed α′ precipitation for alloys containing more than 9 at.% Cr. Both the Cr concentration dependence of α′ precipitation and the measured matrix compositions are in agreement with the recently published Fe–Cr phase diagrams. An irradiation-accelerated precipitation process is strongly suggested. Irradiation was carried out in the Advance Test Reactor (ATR) at Idaho National Laboratory. A series of six Fe–Cr alloys of nominal compositions 3, 6, 9, 12, 15 and 18 at.% Cr was irradiated at a neutron fluence (E > 1 MeV) of 1.1 × 1021 n cm−2 at 563 ± 15 K and to a damage level of 1.82 displacements per atom (dpa). Nominal neutron flux and dpa rate are 2.3 × 1014 n cm−2 s−1 and 3.4 × 10−7 dpa s−1, respectively. The microstructures of the Fe–Cr alloys were studied by atom probe tomography (APT) using a Cameca 4000X HR instrument. APT specimens were prepared by a standard lift-out process using a Quanta 3D 200i dual beam scanning electron microscope ensuring that the analyses were performed away from grain boundaries.
