The Zr oxide was formed on the ZIRLO and newly developed zirconium-based alloy (NDZ) by corrosion in the PWR-simulated loop at 360°C. The corrosion test for 90 days showed that the NDZ exhibits better corrosion resistance than ZIRLO alloy. Based on the C-V measurement, dielectric constant values for the Zr oxide was estimated to be 11.28 and 11.52 for the ZIRLO and NDZ. The capacitance difference between low and high frequency was larger in the ZIRLO than in the NDZ, which was attributed to more mobile electrical charge carriers in the oxide layer on the ZIRLO alloy. The current through the oxide layers on the ZIRLO increased more drastically with increasing temperature than on the NDZ, which indicating that more charge trap sites exist in the ZIRLO than in NDZ. Based on the dynamic charge carrier transport behavior, it was concluded that the electrical charge carrier transport within the oxide layers was closely related with the corrosion behavior of the Zr alloys.}, type={Article}, title={Dynamic Charge Carrier Transport Behaviors in Zirconium Oxide for Nuclear Cladding Materials}, URL={http://journals.pan.pl/Content/116383/PDF/AMM-2020-3-16-Hyun-Gil%20Kim.pdf}, doi={10.24425/amm.2020.133218}, keywords={zirconium, Nuclear cladding, Zr oxide, Capacitance-voltage, Current-voltage}, }
