AbstractA low copper reactor pressure vessel steel was characterised by atom probe tomography after neutron irradiation at different fluences. The specimens were irradiated within the frame of the Surveillance Program of a production reactor. Roughly spherical clusters enriched in nickel, manganese, silicon and, in a lesser extent, phosphorus and copper were observed at all fluences. The chemical composition of these clusters shows no evolution with fluence, as well as their diameter, close to 3 nm. Their number density increases linearly with the neutron fluence. A continuous segregation of the elements found in the clusters is also observed along dislocation lines, with similar enrichments.
