Abstract:Experiments concerning the effect of helium (He) plasma exposure on deuterium (D) plasma-driven permeation (PDP) through tungsten (W) foils in a linear plasma facility has been performed. 0.05 mm thick W foils were exposed to ~2×1020 m-2s-1 He plasma with various fluences at 883 K. After He irradiating, D permeation tests were performed for the samples and retention was also measured by high-resolution thermal desorption spectroscopy (TDS). It was observed that He pre-irradiation resulted in a significant redu… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
