金属/高熵合金纳米多层膜的力学性能及其辐照效应研究进展

Key components in nuclear engineering serve as a security barrier, ensuring the smooth development of nuclear power technology, as well as safe and efficient operation of the nuclear power system in China. Metallic multilayers are novel nanostructured materials based on interface self-healing theory, which exhibit broad nuclear application due to their high-density heterogeneous interfaces. They can not only effectively hinder dislocation movement to enhance material strength but also obviously absorb irradiation-induced defects and promote their annihilation or recombination to improve material irradiation damage tolerance. Considering the recent domestic and international studies on irradiation characteristics of metal/high-entropy alloy multilayers, this study reviewed the evolution of microstructure and mechanical properties, and their underlying mechanisms in metal/high-entropy alloy multilayers before and after irradiation. Furthermore, it also explored strategies to enhance multilayers irradiation tolerance. The development of nanostructured multilayered materials with high tolerance to radiation damage were also proposed.
