Tritium retention in tungsten exposed to intense fluxes of 100 eV tritons

Abstract: Tungsten is a candidate material for ITER as well as other future magnetic fusion energy devices. Tungsten is well suited for certain hsion applications in that it has a high threshold for sputtering as well as a very high melting point. As with all materials to be used on the inside of a tokamak or similar device, there is a need to know the behavior of hydrogen isotopes embedded in the material. With this need in mind, the Tritium Plasma Experiment (TPE) has been used to examine the retention of tritium in t… Show more

“…The maximum retention was observed at temperatures of 400 -500 K, and achieved approximately 1:5 Â 10 20 D=m 2 . (This value is near to that reported by Causey et al [6]). Therefore the irradiation temperature in experiments on the samples with deposited tungsten films was chosen within this range, and was equal to 450 K.…”

“…One of them is nuclear fusion energy, which is a clean and infinite energy resource for future generations. Fusion energy is being developed internationally via the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER) Project [1], which aims to demonstrate the extended burn of deuterium-tritium (D-T) plasma in a fusion reaction. The final application of nuclear fusion energy is mainly dependent on the development of key materials in the thermonuclear fusion device "Tokamak", in which the choice of the plasma facing materials (PFMs) is one of the key issues.…”
