Biography

Weicheng Zhong is a research associate in Oak Ridge National Laboratory. His research focuses on the alloy development and radiation damage assessment by investigating the processing – microstructure – property relationship of ferritic – martensitic steels, tungsten alloys and austenitic alloys. He specializes in using advanced tools of electron microscopy and thermal desorption spectroscopy to develop next generation materials and to advance mechanistic understanding of mechanical degradation in reactor environments.
