Efficient, compact and low loss thermo-optic phase shifter in silicon

Christophe Marcel Georges Galland

We design a resistive heater optimized for efficient and low-loss optical phase modulation in a silicon-on-insulator (SOI) waveguide and characterize the fabricated devices. Modulation is achieved by flowing current perpendicular to a new ridge waveguide g ...

Electron energy loss spectroscopy investigation through a nano ablated uranium dioxide sample

A lamella of uranium dioxide (similar to 10 x similar to 10 x similar to 0.02-0.20 mu m) was produced by focused ion beam for transmission electron and electron energy loss spectroscopy (EELS) examinations. This sample allows quantitative analysis of the E ...

Biogeochemical controls on the product of microbial U(VI) reduction

Rizlan Bernier-Latmani, Daniel Scott Alessi, Malgorzata Alicja Stylo, Paul Pao-Yun Shao

Biologically mediated immobilization of radio-nuclides in the subsurface is a promising strategy for the remediation of uranium-contaminated sites. During this process, soluble U(VI) is reduced by indigenous microorganisms to sparingly soluble U(TV). The c ...

Products of abiotic U(VI) reduction by biogenic magnetite and vivianite

Rizlan Bernier-Latmani, Daniel Scott Alessi, Elena Suvorova Buffat, Harish Veeramani, Jonathan Sharp

Reductive immobilization of uranium by the stimulation of dissimilatory metal-reducing bacteria (DMRB) has been investigated as a remediation strategy for subsurface U(VI) contamination. In those environments, DMRB may utilize a variety of electron accepto ...

Uranium speciation and stability after reductive immobilization in sediments

Rizlan Bernier-Latmani, Elena Suvorova Buffat, Harish Veeramani, Jonathan Sharp

It has generally been assumed that the bioreduction of hexavalent uranium in groundwater systems will result in the precipitation of immobile uraninite (UO2). In order to explore the form and stability of uranium immobilized under these conditions, we intr ...

Development and benchmarking of a mechanical model for GFR plate-type fuel

Rakesh Chawla, Konstantin Mikityuk

The reference fuel design currently being considered within the Generation-IV Gas-cooled Fast Reactor (GFR) project is a ceramic plate matrix with a honeycomb inner structure containing small fuel cylinders. The fuel is mixed plutonium-uranium carbide, whi ...

Development of the control assembly pattern and dynamic analysis of the generation IV large gas-cooled fast reactor (GFR)

Gaëtan Girardin

During the past ten years, different independent factors, such as the rapidly increasing worldwide demand in energy, societal concerns about greenhouse gas emissions, and the high and volatile prices for fossil fuels, have contributed to the renewed intere ...
