AbstractAbstract
[en] Carbon and tungsten films were deposited sequentially and simultaneously from two separate plasmas produced by the thermionic vacuum arc (TVA) method. Total film thickness and atomic concentration of C and W were measured for different substrate positions and arc parameters and a comparison between sequential and simultaneous deposition of carbon and tungsten is presented. For the simultaneous case, while keeping the same discharge parameters as in the sequential case, the carbon composition percentage is enhanced despite the presence of the tungsten plasma. When only the carbon deposition rate is increased 10 times, the tungsten atomic concentration drops to a lower level, while the content of carbon becomes dominant for the substrates positioned near the carbon anode.

AbstractAbstract
[en] In order to understand plasma processes and to obtain technological control in thin film deposition, the study of surface-plasma interactions is essential. Apart from the type and flux of the impinging ions/neutral atoms on the surface, the ion energy distribution (IED) is an important parameter in understanding surface modification due to the plasma. In this paper, results of ion energy analysis of the Thermionic Vacuum Arc (TVA) plasma ignited in carbon vapours are presented. An in-house, computer-controlled retarding field analyzer was used for determining experimentally ion energy distributions of the carbon ions arriving at the substrate. The correlation of the carbon IED with the applied arc voltage in the TVA plasma was put in evidence for the first time.

AbstractAbstract
[en] Beryllium is intended to be used as suggested material for the first wall in the thermonuclear power plants. Some tiles of the first wall will be of inconel coated by a beryllium layer that must be adherent to the substrate and have a compact structure in order to resist as much as possible the dramatic interaction with the high energetic plasma particles, ions, electrons and neutrons. Applying bias voltages (-200 to + 700 V) on the substrates, the morphology of the prepared Be layers using the original thermionic vacuum arc method developed at NILPRP was controlled in order to obtain smooth surfaces, free of holes and lamellar structures. The prepared films were studied and characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), atomic force microscopy (AFM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and Auger spectroscopy (AES). The films prepared using negative bias voltages were found to be more compact and smooth with an average roughness (Rms) of 7 nm

AbstractAbstract
[en] During reactor operation chemical composition of exposed surfaces will evolve over time due to erosion, re-deposition and heat-load events. The main materials considered for plasma facing components (PFC) in the reactor chamber will be beryllium and tungsten. From the present work we conclude that this option will highly mitigate the re-emission of co-deposits to the main plasma compared with previous carbon wall machines. The experiment was carried out by analysing Be, C and W layers deposited on pure Be, graphite and W plates after annealing in vacuum up to 1073 K. In the Be-C-O system, the formation of beryllium carbide and beryllium oxide is enhanced at temperatures higher than 873 K, leading to strong delamination of the films. In opposition, the formation of intermetallics in the Be-W-O system mitigates the occurrence of these events and recovers the delaminated zones. (author)

AbstractAbstract
[en] Since the operation conditions for the nuclear fuel removal in a fusion power plant like ITER involves wall baking at high temperatures of the plasma facing components - i.e. 515 K for the first wall and 623 K for the divertor area - it is important to know how this thermal treatment procedures will affect the materials' properties. It was observed that by heating at 623 K, the carbon from the graphite substrate diffuses into the deposited beryllium film forming a mixed layer of Be, BeO and Be2C at the interface, while the oxygen present at the Be-C interface diffuses to the surface of the film. Comparing the results obtained by Nuclear Reaction Analysis it was observed that the deuterium implanted after annealing was retained in deeper layers in the case of thermally treated samples due to the structural changes induced in the films by the Be/C mixed layer formation and the effects of the oxygen diffusion into the thermal treated films.

AbstractAbstract
[en] Deuterium retention and release behavior were investigated in this study, for beryllium, tungsten and mixed beryllium/tungsten thin layers which are of concern for next-generation thermonuclear fusion devices like International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor. The layers prepared with thermionic vacuum arc technology by using two different ion acceleration voltages 0 V and −700 V respectively were subsequently implanted by exposure to a steady-state deuterium plasma with ion energies of 240 eV/D for D3 and 360 eV/D for D2 at a specific fluency of 2.85 × 1020 m−2 s. Morphology is strongly influenced by layer composition and by the ion acceleration voltage applied in-situ during layer deposition. Crystalline structure analysis shows the presence of a polycrystalline W metallic phase and also highlights a dependence between tungsten crystallite size and Be/W atomic ratio. The amount of deuterium in mixed layers is lower than in pure beryllium layers indicating that W is mitigating D binding states. Results extrapolated for a ‘cold chamber and divertor scenario’ indicate a limited desorption efficiency (∼20%), if the wall baking scenario, for tritium removal procedure in ITER, is to be applied to the investigated layers.

AbstractAbstract
[en] Be/W and W/Be bilayers, of interest in regard to the specific behavior of plasma facing components (PFCs) were deposited on Si substrates by thermionic vacuum arc, with Fe, Fe-Cr and Fe-Cr-Al interlayers. The interlayers, with compositions approaching the one of the reduced activation steels used in supporting PFCs, were subsequently annealed in hydrogen atmosphere. The multilayers were characterized with respect to morphologic, structural, diffusional and atomic intermixing aspects via XRD, XRR, X-ray photoemission spectroscopy and Mössbauer spectroscopy. All as-prepared samples present partially amorphous structures. A main α-Fe phase is observed, as well as (superparamagnetic) secondary Fe oxides, metallic Fe with Si, Cr, W and Be neighbors, Be-rich Fe-Be and Fe-Si phases. High amounts of tungsten and tungsten oxides were also evidenced in the Fe layer. The strong atomic intermixing of W and Be layers was indirectly supported by the unusual densities of W and Be layers and "5"7Fe Mössbauer spectroscopy results. - Highlights: • Be/W and W/Be bilayers were deposited on Si with hydrogenated Fe(Cr-Al) interlayers. • Metallic Fe, Fe and W oxides and other binary phases were found in the interlayers. • Specific atomic intermixing processes in Be/W and W/B structures were reported.

AbstractAbstract
[en] The inconel cladding tiles of the ITER-like-wall to be tested at JET will be coated by a beryllium layer. Carbon containing tiles will be also present. These materials are sputtered in the high flux (1022 m-2 s-1 or higher) of the deuterium-tritium plasma. Ionized by the energetic electrons and with hydrogen isotope ions they will be implanted or re-deposited, creating composite layers. In order to study the deuterium retention and release, mixed layers were prepared using the thermionic arc method. Deuterium implantation was performed using a high current ion source at room temperature using a deuterium ion beam with energy of 200 eV/D. Thermal Desorption Spectroscopy (TDS) analyses were correlated with the beryllium/carbon relative concentrations of the prepared films. At higher carbon concentrations the peak value from TDS spectra corresponding to beryllium was lower and an increased peak corresponding to the carbon was observed.

AbstractAbstract
[en] Beryllium–tungsten thin films with well controlled elemental composition were prepared using Thermionic Vacuum Arc (TVA) technique and subsequently exposed to steady state, high ion flux (5.5 − 9.8 × 10"2"2 ions m"−"2 s"−"1) deuterium (D) plasma in the PISCES-B facility to consistent fluences of 2.3 × 10"2"6 m"−"2. Six types of layers were studied, ranging from pure Be, composite Be–W, having the atomic ratios of 9:1; 7:3; 1:1; 3:7; to pure W with a total deposited layer thickness of 2 μm. The sample exposure temperatures, namely 300 K, 473 K, 573 K and 773 K, respectively, were measured in situ with a thermocouple placed on the back of the sample. Morphological and structural examinations were undertaken before and after plasma exposure. Results show an influence of temperature on the subsequent morphology of the surface. Thermal Desorption Spectrometry (TDS) spectra showed a change in the D release behavior for different Be–W ratio for a certain exposure temperature
