Abstract

Depleted zone annealing during pulsed irradiation at high damage rate, at low doses and over a narrow temperature range increased the predicted rate of microstructural development compared to steady irradiation predictions. The rates of defect annihilation at voids and dislocations were calculated for both pulsed and steady irradiation. Subsequently, the irradiation and material parameters that control the predicted pulsing influence were examined for pulsed ion and pulsed neutron irradiation of molybdenum. Pulsed ion effects, but not pulsed neutron effects were significant.
