A debris free, electron beam driven, lithography source at 130 [angstrom]

Description: Los Alamos and Grumman are cooperatively investigating a debris free source for EUV lithography. This source utilizes the predicted anomalous energy loss of a short pulse electron beam in a preformed plasma to heat and ionize the ions to a charge state where efficient radiation at 130[angstrom] occurs. Accelerators developed for the free electron laser program at Los Alamos are used as the electron bunch source. These accelerators use a laser driven photocathode to produce 15 psec electron bunc… more

Energy over the centuries: The IFR option

Description: The fast spectrum reactor provides the only avenue to control of the overall amounts of plutonium world-wide that also fits naturally into electricity-generation systems. Sufficient plutonium has now been produced, and is currently being produced, that the characteristic that this system possesses to burn plutonium rather than breed it should be the reference configuration for such reactors for a long time. Fuel recycle is the key and recycle with as little plutonium purification as possible is… more

Scale-up of the SY-102 remediation flowsheet

Description: An anion exchange unit operation for the removal of actinides from a high nitrate-low acid solution has been successfully scaled-up more than one order of magnitude. The behavior of the scaled-up system was similar in many ways to the previous small scale experiments. It is characterized by a slow approach to equilibrium, displacement of Am by the other actinides, and improved column performance with increasing column length. The breakthrough of Americium, the most weakly sorbed actinide of tho… more
