This is a webpage containing information abou the PureAlloys project I am working since 2023.
The PureAlloys project will advance our understanding in the nature of the Cosmos by enabling novel, extremely radiopure, experimental searches for Dark Matter and for neutrinoless double beta decay. Current experiments are constrained by radioactive contamination in the detector manufacturing process, posing the main barrier in their physics discovery potential. Electroformed copper achieves extreme radiopurity, however it is limited by its mechanical properties: high ductility and low strength. PureAlloys will address this challenge by designing high radiopurity CuCr and CuCrTi alloys with significantly higher strength. A novel multi-scale modelling framework enabling fast progress in designing application-specific alloys will be developed, opening the path for the design of new alloys in fields involving fabrication and properties enhancement where the thermodynamic and kinetic description of the system is crucial. PureAlloys will push the boundaries in many fields: from fundamental science to industrial applications.
