Biography

Dr. William Chuirazzi is the Instrument Scientist for Idaho National Laboratory’s (INL) ZEISS Xradia 620 Versa X-ray microscope housed at the Irradiated Materials Characterization Laboratory (IMCL) as well as the group leader for the X-ray and Neutron Sciences Diffraction and Imaging Group. His research interests include applying nondestructive evaluation, multi-modal imaging, and image analysis for energy advancement. As an Instrument Scientist for IMCL’s X-ray microscope, Dr. Chuirazzi nondestructively examines highly radioactive nuclear materials to inform the traditional post-irradiation examination (PIE) process. His previous work consists of imaging and analyzing Advanced Gas Reactor (AGR) TRISO particles and compacts, battery materials, and structural materials, amongst others.

Dr. Chuirazzi is always happy to engage with potential collaborators and X-ray microscope users. Feel free to reach out to him at [email protected].
