Bio
ORISE Graduate Intern at ORNL.
In my independent graduate studies under the guidance of Professor Jean Paul Allain at UIUC, I have approached the quintessential issue in contemporary plasma facing component research for fusion applications - that the plasma-material interface is a dynamic, evolving, reconstituted region of material. I originally became intrigued with PMI engineering in my undergraduate studies. After graduating in the plasma and fusion sciences concentration of my BS, I began my work with the Allain research group, RSSEL. Here, I joined the fusion cluster group, and expressed taking my studies further into the materials science and engineering discipline. I am currently studying and taking coursework on materials characterization techniques. The major vector of my research is targeted toward the surface morphological evolution of the plasma facing components. The issue and basis of further research in this topic is that long plasma durations and high particle and heat-flux conditions will essentially cause the material to completely alter. Thus, I want to be able to analyze dynamic surfaces under fusion power reactor-relevant conditions. I have developed a critical understanding for fuel and material recycling, deposition, and re-deposition over project work that I've done at UIUC. I studied plasma sheath properties of ions on a target material surface, sputtering, reionization, and deposition. I modeled basic sputtered impurity transport, referencing analysis of DIII-D/DiMES in my research. What I hope to follow-up with my current background in PMI is the effect of high fluence irradiation on surface morphology. A possible research project for the future is the appearance of Rhenium and Osmium clusters that transmuted on the surface of Tungsten. How these clusters are affecting some mechanical and PMI surface properties would be a good study to do both at Oak Ridge and to further my future graduate research. Eventually, I'm hoping that research through this internship will be both enriching and lead to greater possibilities for my investigation into the development of in-situ measurement of reactor-relevant reconstituted surfaces.
