Abstract

We developed a simple method to prepare the displacement damage cross section of SiC using NJOY and SRIM/TRIM. The number of displacements per atom (DPA) dependent on primary knock-on atom (PKA) energy was computed using SRIM/TRIM and it is directly used by NJOY/HEATR to compute the neutron energy dependent DPA cross sections which are required to estimate the accumulated DPA of nuclear material. SiC DPA cross section is published as a table in DeCART 47 energy group structure. Proposed methodology can be easily extended to other materials.
