Times Cited Count：13 Percentile：53.21(Electrochemistry)As the lessons learnt from the accident at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station, advanced cladding materials are being developed to enhance accident tolerance comparing with conventional zirconium alloys. The present paper reviews the progress of the development and summarizes subjects to be solved for the enhanced accident-tolerance fuel cladding, focusing on performance degradation under various corrosive environmental conditions that should be considered in designing the LWR fuel.

While high beginning-of-life efficiencies are important for space solar cells, the end-of-life performance is also critical factor. Two different prediction methods, "relative damage dose" and "displacement damage dose" methods, based on analysis of ground radiation test have been produced. We report proton radiation response for triple-junction space solar cells and analyze prediction methodology for the cell radiation response using the two methods. The results show that V
degradation behavior can be predicted by taking into account a cell structure and proton penetration depth. Accurate prediction of power degradation, however, is required to determine the current-limiting sub cell after proton irradiations.
