Simulation of the dynamics of oxygen atoms in UO$$_2$$ in the presence of defects of metal lattice

Ichinomiya, Takashi*; Nishiura, Yasumasa*; Itakura, Mitsuhiro  ; Kinoshita, Motoyasu

The effect of lattice defects in UO$$_2$$ such Uranium vacancy and Xe atom on the diffusion of oxygen vacancy has been investigated by temperature accelerated MD simulations. U-vacancy was found to have very low mobility and its migration was very rare. O-vacancy is bound to this U-vacancy with 0.76 eV bounding energy. From these results, we found that O-vacancy diffusion is suppressed by U-vacancy.
