Abstract

The annihilation behavior of irradiation defects induced in neutron-irradiated Li2TiO3 and Li2ZrO3 were investigated with the tritium release behavior. It was revealed that the common characteristics in both samples were that the annihilation process of irradiation defects consisted of two first-order processes and E’-center could act as tritium trapping site, and otherwise was the way how the E’-center annihilated. The difference was suggested to attribute to the mobility of M as M4+ (or M3+, etc.).
