A short pulse laser (the nanosecond and femtosecond) was applied to hydrogen absorbing alloys surface layer, and a surface modification experiment was put into effective to aim at improvement of hydrogen adsorption functionally. It was investigated about correlation between an initial hydrogen absorption reaction rate of hydrogen alloys and a laser irradiation in this research. The laser irradiation condition was done with pulse width 100 fsec and energy 0.2 - 3.4 mJ/pulse. It blazed down on hydrogen absorbing alloys (LaNi
Al
) and changed local order in the surface. As a result, the initial hydrogen absorption reaction rate was 1.5 - 3.0 times as fast as a irradiated sample, and the result and laser irradiated sample found out that a hydrogen absorption function improves. A laser irradiation can conclude to be effective in surface modification of the hydrogen storage materials.

Times Cited Count:0 Percentile:0.00(Nanoscience & Nanotechnology)Heat resistant FBG sensors were developed by femtosecond laser processing to apply them to high temperature operated piping system of nuclear power plants. The FBG sensor was installed on the surface of a steel blade and a vibration test was conducted to detect the resonant vibration frequency of the vibrating blade. The FBG sensor had the heatproof performance at 600
C. A frequency stabilized sensing system using a tunable laser was tested for structural health monitoring in daily operation of nuclear power plants. The FBG sensor was installed on the surface of a steel blade for vibration induced strain measurements. Welding, brazing, soldering and noble metal powder adhesive were discussed for molding the FBG sensors.

Since 2007, JAEA has been developing laser based technologies of structural health monitoring. The FBG sensor made by femtosecond laser processing will be the best candidate. To make the best use of the heat resistant characteristic, the FBG sensor was embedded in metal mold by laser cladding. A groove was processed to the surface of a SUS metal plate. We used a QCW laser to weld a filler wire on the plate. A series of weld beads perfectly formed a sealing clad on the groove. Though the FBG sensor was buried tightly, no degradation on the reflection spectrum was detected after the processing. The FBG sensor could detect the vibration of the plate caused by impact shocks and audio vibration. The reflection peak of the FBG sensor under laser cladding condition was shifted to be 6 nm. We demonstrated that the corresponded temperature derive from the reflection peak shift reached 600 degrees in heat shock experiments. The installation procedure of a FBG sensor using a portable laser cladding machine was described.

line emission from Mo and Ag plate were experimentally studied by using ultra-high intensity, clean femtosecond laser pulses. Absolutely yield of
X-rays at 17 keV from Mo and 22 keV from Ag were measured as a function of the laser pulse contrast ratio and irradiation intensity. Significant enhancement of
yields were obtained for both Mo and Ag with higher contrast ratios and high irradiance. The conversion efficiencies of 4.28
10
/sr for Mo and 4.84
10
/sr for Ag, the highest values ever obtained, have been demonstarted with the contrast ratio of 10
to 10

A prototype probe system with a hybrid optical fiber scope was designed for inspecting and re-pairing the micro cracks on heat exchanger tubes in fast breeder reactors (FBRs). It comprised a laser processing head combined with an eddy current testing unit. Ultrashort laser pulse ablation was used to remove work-hardened layers. And spot laser welding was used to repair the micro cracks. This system has both safe and economical options for the maintenance of FBRs because it extends the lifetime of the heat exchangers.

A composite-type optical fiberscope was combined with a laser processing head to repair heat exchange pipes of Fast Breeder Reactor (FBR). The head can rotate axially and move back and forth longitudinally in the 1-inch pipes. The property of fiberscope and the motion of the head can successfully observe the pipe's inner surface to find the cracks which should be repaired by laser welding. The project, which aims for developing the integrated system of inspection and repair, proposes an effective cost reduction for maintenance of FBRs by extension of the heat exchanger's lifetime. This report describes the outline of the laser processing head and the basic performance.

In order to maintain FBR heat exchanger tubes, a new probe system was designed. A coupling unit and operational software are key components in the second year. The coupling unit to combine a high energy laser beam and optical fiberscope images was developed. The operational software successfully controlled an eddy current testing device and a laser processing head.
