The book presents pioneering work on the use of grazing-incidence small-angle X-ray scattering (GISAXS) to measure nano-bubble formation in tungsten exposed to helium plasma. The phenomenon of nanoscale bubble formation within metals during helium plasma exposure can lead to undesirable changes in the material properties, such as complex nanoscale surface modification or a reduction in thermal conductivity. As a result of this work, it is now possible to quantify how nanobubble behaviour changes within different materials, and under different plasma conditions. In 2015 the author published the first GISAXS study of helium-induced nanobubble formation in tungsten, demonstrating the viability of using GISAXS for this work. This paper has generated significant interest from the international fusion community and was selected as one of the highlights for the journal Nuclear Fusion.Springer Theses, Recognizing Outstanding Ph.D. Research,2190-5053CrystallographyNuclear fusionPlasma (Ionized gases)Materials scienceForce and energyNanoscienceNanoscienceNanostructuresCrystallography and Scattering Methodshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P25056Nuclear Fusionhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P23045Plasma Physicshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P24040Energy Materialshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Z21000Nanoscale Science and Technologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P25140Crystallography.Nuclear fusion.Plasma (Ionized gases)Materials science.Force and energy.Nanoscience.Nanoscience.Nanostructures.Crystallography and Scattering Methods.Nuclear Fusion.Plasma Physics.Energy Materials.Nanoscale Science and Technology.548Thompson Mattauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut835274BOOK9910300550903321Helium Nano-bubble Formation in Tungsten2498792UNINA
