Description

High-entropy ceramic nitride protective coating for shielding high-energy electrons and preparation method thereof
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of radiation protection, and particularly relates to a high-entropy ceramic nitride protective coating for shielding high-energy electrons and a preparation method thereof. Can be applied to the fields of spacecrafts, nuclear protection, nuclear reactors and the like, and has very wide application prospect.
Background
The electronic device is used as a supporting product of modern technology, is widely applied to the fields of communication, energy, medical treatment and the like, and is particularly more critical in the national defense fields of aerospace, military industry and the like. There are a large number of electronic systems in the spacecraft, the reliability of the electronic devices directly affects the success or failure of the aerospace mission, but the electronic devices in the spacecraft are susceptible to high-energy electrons in the service environment to fail. Therefore, development of high-efficiency high-energy electron radiation shielding materials for implementing radiation-resistant reinforcement on electronic devices is a necessary measure for promoting development of aerospace industry in China.
Conventional electron shielding materials often use a single metal material such as aluminum, lead, tantalum, tungsten, etc., and research on the shielding materials is now being conducted more and more. Upon incidence of electrons on the shielding material, the electrons lose energy primarily by inelastic collisions with the out-of-core electrons of the shielding material, a manner known as ionization loss, which is proportional to the atomic number of the medium, meaning that the radiant energy loss in high atomic number materials is much greater than in low atomic number materials. Meanwhile, the electron incidence can cause the generation of the bremsstrahlung radiation due to inelastic collision with atomic nuclei of the shielding material, the energy loss mode is called radiation energy loss, the energy loss mode is particularly obvious when high-energy electrons are incident into the high-atomic-number material, the electromagnetic radiation emitted by the bremsstrahlung radiation has high penetrating capacity, the shielding material can be greatly damaged, and the low-atomic-number material has high absorption capacity on the bremsstrahlung radiation. In recent years, there has been a growing enthusiasm for the study of electronic shielding materials, and a great deal of research and development has been conducted on electronic shielding materials. However, the developed materials still have the defects that the actual needs are difficult to meet, and the main appearance is that: the developed material only considers the shielding performance of low-energy electrons and ignores the shielding effect of high-energy electrons; only the loss of electron energy by the shielding material is considered and the energy generated by bremsstrahlung is ignored. Therefore, development of a radiation shielding material capable of realizing effective shielding of high-energy electrons is required while considering the manufacturing process and cost thereof.
The prior art and materials are rarely provided with high-entropy ceramics as radiation shielding materials, the material design is single, and the development and utilization of novel materials are less researched.
The traditional material shielding only considers ionization damage of high-energy electrons, and the influence of bremsstrahlung radiation is ignored, so that the shielding material is invalid, and compared with the design singleness of the traditional shielding material.
In addition, some researchers have studied combinations of different element materials, but such combined structures often have uneven element distribution, dense defects and other conditions, and cannot maintain the stability of the material performance, so that the application is limited.
