2 Outline Radiation effects in materials Radiation effects on the electric and dielectric properties of inorganic insulators (focus on Al 2 O 3 ) Postirradiation (accumulated dose) and in-situ (prompt) effects Accumulated damage effects are generally insignificant for doses below ~1 GGy in materials at do not experience radiolysis Radiation effects in polymers Dose range for degradation of polymers and comparison with anticipated doses in SNS couplers Sensitivity to radiation for significant degradation ranges from ~1 kgy to /10 3 kgy
3 Radiation Effects on Properties of Materials Short answer Virtually every property can be changed Long answer Dimensions Mechanical properties Electrical properties Optical properties Underlying these changes are the production of defects and defect clusters, alterations in microstructure (e.g., dislocations, voids, precipitates) compositional segregation, electronic ionization and excitation
4 Historical Perspective on Radiation Effects Some radiation effects were observed in minerals in the 19 th century, but their origin was not understood E. P. Wigner, 1946, Journal of Applied Physics 17 The matter has great scientific interest because pile irradiation should permit the artificial formation of displacements in definite numbers and a study of the effect of these on thermal and electrical conductivity, tensile strength, ductility, etc. as demanded by the theory. The full scope of radiation effects in materials was only appreciated after fast spectrum reactors were operated in the 1950 s and 1960 s
5 Origins of Radiation Effects in Materials Displacement of atoms (nuclear stopping) Dominant damage process for metals Can be important for ceramics and polymers The unit of damage is the displacement per atom, dpa One dpa is the dose at which on average every atom in the material has been energetically displaced once Ionization and excitation (electronic stopping) Generally negligible for metals Important for ceramics and polymers The unit of damage is the Gray, Gy One Gy is the dose at which the material has absorbed 1 J/Kg
6 Origins of Radiation Effects in Materials Transmutation reactions Transmutation products, especially helium and hydrogen from proton- and neutron-induced reactions, exacerbate damage Customary unit of measure is appm transmutant per dpa, e.g., appm He/dpa Typical highest damage rates (10-6 dpa/s, >10 3 Gy/s, 100 appm He/dpa) High power spallation target High flux reactor core Fusion reactor first wall

9 Ionizing and displacive radiation doses for SNS couplers Coupler calculations courtesy of Franz Gallmeier, ORNL Coupler peak displacement dose rate ~ 2 x dpa/s ~ 3/4 n, 1/4 p Coupler peak displacement dose (10 y) 6.3 x 10 8 dpa Coupler peak Ionizing dose rate ~ 3 x 10-4 Gy/s Coupler peak ionizing dose (10 y) 95 kgy Spallation target container peak displacement dose rate ~ 10-6 dpa/s ~ 2/3 n, 1/3 p Spallation target container peak displacement dose (1 y) 36 dpa
10 Radiation can alter the properties of ceramics via three general mechanisms Permanent defect production by knock-on collisions and nuclear reactions Displacement damage Transmutations Displacement production via ionization (radiolysis) processes Occurs in SiO 2, alkali halides, etc. Does not occur in Al 2 O 3, BeO, AlN Radiation-induced conductivity (RIC) Transient excitation of valence electrons into conduction band
11 Effect of irradiation on loss tangent Power absorbed by dielectric feedthrough is given by P =ωε' E 2 tanδ tanδ = σdc ωε ' + χ ε '/εo Can be increased by RIC (prompt effect): Can be increased by radiation-induced defects (permanent displacement damage effect)

22 Basics of Radiation Effects on Polymers Comparatively low doses can produce changes in properties Why? Because of typically very high molecular weight, a large fraction (tens of percent) of the molecules can suffer at least one event in doses of order 10 kgy Predominant changes can be described as chain scission and cross-linking (other changes: release of small molecules, i.e., gas formation, modification in types of bonding, ) For a given polymer, radiation type and temperature, either cross-linking or scission will usually dominate Cross-linking increases molecular mass, lowers solubility and improves mechanical properties Scission generally degrades properties
23 Basics of Radiation Effects on Polymers While polymers are often classed as cross-linking type or degrading (scission) type, our research has shown that the ratio of cross-links to scissions depends strongly on LET. Energetic heavy ions cause much more crosslinking than ( or e - and can lead to reclassification of material from scission-type to cross-linking type Range of sensitivity for producing significant degradation spans more than three orders of magnitude in dose, for example, for reduction in uniform elongation by 25%: /1kGy PTFE (Teflon) /10 3 kgy PI, PS (Polyimide, Polystyrene) Sensitivity also depends on irradiation conditions and environment. Irradiation in vacuum can improve dose endurance over air by an order of magnitude. Irradiation at higher temperatures can give improvement.

26 Conclusions Radiation effects should not produce significant degradation of the performance of the ceramic insulators in RF power couplers in SNS and other advanced accelerator systems The leading candidate inorganic insulators (Al 2 O 3, BeO, AlN) are not susceptible to radiolysis, and the displacement damage associated with protons and neutrons are well below the threshold for causing permanent deterioration of loss tangent The anticipated ionizing radiation fluxes are too low to affect the electrical resistivity or loss tangent performance of the ceramic insulators
27 Conclusions Radiation effects in polymers become significant over the range from ~ 1 kgy to /10 3 kgy, depending on the material At the anticipated dose levels of SNS couplers, acetal, polypropylene, and PTFE (teflon) should be avoided Top performers are PI (polyimide) and PS (polystyrene), which sould easily withstand the anticipated doses with little degradation High performance fluoropolymers like Viton are in an intermediate range and should perform satisfactorily. However, Viton is a general name for entirely different formulations. Specific data for the precise formulation should be consulted.
