Radiation Physics, Radiochemistry, and Nanotechnology Investigations Using Beams of Accelerated Heavy Ions
Leaders: | S.N. Dmitriev P.Yu. Apel |
Participating countries and international organizations: Belarus, Bulgaria, China, Cuba, Czech Republic, Germany, Hungary, Kazakhstan, Moldova, Mongolia, Poland, Romania, Russia, Serbia, Slovak Republic,
South Africa, Spain, USA, Vietnam.
Issues addressed and main goals of research: Transition to a new level of research and development in the fields of radiation solid-state physics, applied radiochemistry, and materials science,
with possible nanotechnology applications. The main emphasis will be on the modification of the materials at the nanometer scale and on the study
of the effects produced by heavy ions in matter with the aim of revealing the fundamental mechanisms and developing nanotechnology applications
for ion beams. Upgrade of the FLNR facilities for the production of medical isotopes and the development of materials modification methods.
Expected results in the current year:
- Formation of subnanometer channels in ion-irradiated polyethylene terephthalate films using a combination of photolytic treatment and liquid extraction.
Investigation of the transport properties of fabricated ion-selective membranes.
- Clarification of the role of osmotic effects occurring during etching of asymmetric track nanopores and the evaluation of the interrelation between
their diode-like properties and osmotic phenomena.
- Use of transmission electron microscopy and molecular dynamic simulation for the analysis of latent tracks of swift heavy ions in polycrystalline and
amorphous silicon nitride as a material for minor actinides utilization.
- Study of the structure and the electrical properties of graphene oxide modified by high-energy ion irradiation.
- Study of the structure effects and gas swelling behavior of ferritic steels for nuclear reactors by electron microscopy techniques under high-energy ion irradiation.
- Preparation and characterization of functional polymer nanofibers, including biodegradable, immobilized on the surface of metallized track membranes for
membrane-sorption separation of electrolyte solutions.
- Formation, morphology and composition of superhydrophobic layers on the surface of track-etched membranes using electron-beam dispersion coating of polymers
in vacuum for membrane distillation process.
- Application of X-ray fluorescence and gamma-activation analysis for assessing the environmental impact from existing industrial facilities, in particular
coal-fired thermal power plants (in cooperation with Mongolia).
- Expansion of the equipment infrastructure and the adoption in labs of new physicochemical methods of research (spectroscopy of surface-enhanced Raman scattering,
dynamic light scattering, measurement of thermo-stimulated currents in dielectrics) and synthesis (electrospinning) of nanostructures.
- A feasibility study for the construction of a DC-140 cyclotron.
