Defect evolution in tungsten exposed to helium plasma and deuterium plasmas studied by slow positron beam

Comparison of defect formation in tungsten samples exposed only to a helium plasma and those exposed to both helium plasma and subsequent deuterium plasmas is performed via Doppler broadening spectroscopy in the positron annihilation technique (DBS-PA). The S parameters of tungsten samples after hel...

The S parameters of samples exposed to helium incident fluence of 7.9 × 1021 He/m2 enhanced after deuterium plasmas exposure, indicating that low energy deuterium plasmas could form defects in tungsten too.
