UCLA physicists have developed a new thin film that uses far less of the rare thorium-229 while also being significantly less ...

Metal oxide dopants, such as titanium and chromium oxides, have garnered considerable attention for their potential to increase grain size (≥ 30 µm) in UO2 fuel, purportedly enhancing fission gas ...

In this work, we investigate the effects on microstructure, grain size, crystal structure, and stoichiometry when trace amounts of Fe in the form of Fe2O3 are added to UO2. Sintering of compacts with ...

For decades researchers have been exploring how to store data in glass because of its potential to hold information for a long time -- eons -- without applying power. A special type of glass that ...

This work reports the design of an efficient multiband UC system based on Ln3+/Yb3+-doped core-shell upconversion ...
