Abstract

A new method for hydrogen content control over UO2 based on laser microsampling in a noble gas flow as well as independent ways of hydrogen detection are proposed. Solid electrolytic cell and a metal-insulator-semiconductor sensor are used for hydrogen registration. The limit of detection is about 10−11 g H2... The results received by the two analytical procedures do not show considerable systematic discrepancy.
