Refractory ceramics are considered for the GEN IV reactors (GFR). Transition metal carbides, like ZrC, are candidates as components for fuel elements owing to their good thermal stability and their neutronic performance. An extensive study was carried out to elucidate the role of temperature on the diffusion of xenon, an abundant and volatile radionuclide, in zirconium oxycarbide. For that purpose, dense zirconium carbide samples ZrC0.8O0.2 and ZrC0.95O0.05 were synthesized using Spark Plasma Sintering and Hot Pressing. 136Xe2+ ions were implanted at three fluencies: 1015, 1016 and 1017 at/cm2, at an energy of 800 keV. Thermal annealing were carried out under vacuum in a temperature range of 1500°C to 1800°C. The Xe distribution profiles we...
