The decommissioning is currently in progress at the prototype fast breeder reactor Monju. Fuel assemblies will be taken out of its core for the first step of the great task. Fuel assemblies stand on their own spike plugged into a socket on the core support plate and support with adjacent assemblies through their housing pads each other, resulting in steady core structure. For this reason, some substitutive assemblies are necessary for the purpose of discharging the fuel assemblies of the core. Monju side commissioned, therefore, Plutonium Fuel Development Center to manufacture the substitutive assemblies and the Center accepted it. This report gives descriptions of design, manufacture, and shipment in regard to the substitutive assemblies.

Times Cited Count:2 Percentile:17.84(Materials Science, Multidisciplinary)The layered perovskite PrBaCoO demonstrates a strong negative thermal expansion (NTE) which holds potential for being fabricated into composites with zero thermal expansion. The NTE was found to be intimately associated with the spontaneous magnetic ordering, known as magneto-volume effect (MVE). Here we report with compelling evidences that the continuous-like MVE in PrBaCoO is intrinsically of discontinuous character, originating from an magnetoelectric transition from an antiferromagnetic insulating large-volume (AFILV) phase to a ferromagnetic less-insulating small-volume (FLISV) phase. Furthermore, the magnetoelectric effect (ME) shows high sensitivity to multiple external stimuli such as temperature, carrier doping, hydrostatic pressure, magnetic field etc. In contrast to the well-known ME such as colossal magnetoresistance and multi-ferroic effect which involve symmetry breaking of crystal structure, the ME in the cobaltite is purely isostructural. Our discovery provides a new path way to realizing the ME as well as the NTE, which may find applications in new techniques.

Spin-state transition, also known as spin crossover, plays a key role in diverse systems. In theory, the boundary range between the low- and high-spin states is expected to enrich the transition and give rise to unusual physical states. However, no compound that realizes a nearly degenerate critical range as the ground state without requiring special external conditions has yet been experimentally identified. This study reports that the Sc substitution in LaCoO3 destabilizes its nonmagnetic low-spin state and generates an anomalous paramagnetic state accompanied by the enhancement of transport gap and magneto-lattice-expansion as well as the contraction of Co-O distance with the increase of electron site transfer. These phenomena are not well described by the mixture of conventional low- and high-spin states, but by their quantum superposition occurring on the verge of a spin-state transition.

The Monju is equipped with two types of hydrogen-meters to detect water leakage in steam generators. Since they are so highly-sensitive as to detect minor water leak from a steam generator tube, they sometimes detect hydrogen concentration increases at plant operational condition changes such as start-up without any water leak. No water leak was experienced during one year operation of the Startup Test up to 40% in 1995, although hydrogen concentration sometimes increased at plant operational condition changes. The H behavior of Monju IHTS during the previous Startup Test was examined and the following knowledge was obtained: The in-sodium H behaves in parallel with the IHTS sodium temperature. In-cover-gas H behavior is more complicated and sensitive to plant operational condition changes such as plant load changes than the in-sodium one. Both types of H-meters underwent a certain degree of zero level drift during one year operation.

Times Cited Count:4 Percentile:21.85(Chemistry, Physical)The room temperature adsorbed state of oxygen molecules on Si(110)-162 surface and the structural change after a mild annealing has been investigated by synchrotron radiation photoemission spectroscopy. As a result, despite the very small dosage of oxygen, Si and Si components already appear in addition to Si. This is likely to be caused by a selective adsorption of O molecules into the vicinity of already oxidized sites. After annealing, we found that binding energy of Si and Si increase and approach to their corresponding peak positions of a thermally-grown oxide, and this increase indicates relaxation of the Si-O bond length and Si-O-Si bond angle of metastable oxygen atoms.

From its high hole mobility, as well as its inevitable usage as an active layer in multi-gated FETs, Si(110) surface is expected to play a crucial role in the next generation CMOS devices. We have investigated the initial oxidation of Si(110) surface by using SR-XPS and STM. Reflecting its atomistic structure of the 162 reconstruction, initial oxidation of Si(110) surface shows a unique behavior which is not observed on other surfaces like (111) and (001).
