摘要：

The results are presented of a theoretical study on alpha-U3O8 using atomistic simulation techniques. Various electronic arrangements have been considered for U3O8 and it was found that a model employing an averaged uranium ion charge, (U5 1/3+)3O8, best reproduces the structural data. Calculations of the energetics of basic defect formation are presented. Anion Frenkel defects are predicted to dominate in the stoichiometric oxide, whilst the formation of non-stoichiometric U3O8-x is demonstrated to occur, at least initially, by the creation of oxygen vacancies.
