Abstract: EUROFER is a Reduced Activation Ferritic Martensitic (RAFM) steel developed as structural material for future fusion power plants and is considered as first-wall material in recessed areas of DEMO. Recent work has shown a fluence-dependent decrease of the sputter yield for bombardment with deuterium ions in the energy range of 100 to about 500 eV. This decrease was previously attributed to preferential sputtering of the lower mass constituents in EUROFER, such as Fe and Cr, compared to the higher mass alloying elements. This leads to an increase of the surface tungsten concentration. However, it was also observed that, after sputtering, the samples had developed a very rough surface morphology. In this work, the combined influence of surface roughness and W surface enrichment on the sputter yield of EUROFER under bombardment with 200 eV deuterium ions was studied. The influence of surface roughness was determined with the aid of Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and SDTrimSP-3D simulations. W surface enrichment was investigated applying sputter X-Ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS) depth-profiling and Rutherford backscattering spectrometry (RBS). After bombardment to a fluence of 1024 D m−2 (at 200 eV per deuterium) a reduction of the sputter yield to 29% ± 5% of the initial value was measured by weight-loss measurements. This reduction is in good agreement with published values. Two distinct surface morphologies, consisting of smooth and spiked surfaces, were observed on the EUROFER sample after sputtering. Based on the experimental results, the combined effect of the two factors, surface roughness and W surface enrichment, is estimated to be responsible for a reduction in the sputter yield to 27% ± 4% of the initial value, which is in excellent agreement with the measured value. Our assessment shows that both surface morphology and W surface enrichment contribute significantly to the reduction of the sputter yield of EUROFER under the given experimental conditions, and are sufficient to fully explain the experimentally observed reduction in the sputter yield.

Abstract: The influence of surface roughness on the sputter yield was investigated as a function of the angle of incidence. In this work, nm-smooth and rough samples with roughnesses on the µm length scale were produced by depositing thin Fe and W films on smooth and rough Si substrates via magnetron sputtering. The surface morphology of the samples was determined by atomic force microscopy. The samples were exposed to a 6 keV D3+ ion beam (2 keV/D) under various angles of incidence ranging from 0° to 75° with respect to the surface normal to fluences of the order of 1022 D/m2. The layer thickness was measured by Rutherford backscattering spectrometry (RBS) before and after erosion. The resulting sputter yields were compared to simulations performed with SDTrimSP (static and dynamic) and SDTrimSP-3D (static), showing good qualitative agreement in all cases, as well as agreement with literature data at normal incidence. This constitutes the first experimental benchmark of SDTrimSP-3D. A discrepancy in the value of the sputter yield for smooth W at normal incidence was observed between the SDTrimSP simulations and the experimental values obtained in this work and found in literature. Analogous experiments were performed to study the sputter yield at normal incidence of 2 keV/D on smooth Au and 6 keV He on smooth W. These sputter yields were also compared to SDTrimSP simulations and literature, showing good agreement in all cases. Keywords: Sputtering, SDTrimSP, Roughness

Abstract: Time-of-flight Rutherford backscattering spectroscopy (ToF-RBS) with incident heavy ions offers a substantially improved depth resolution compared to conventional RBS with incident He ions. The new Garching ToF-RBS detector is located at a scattering angle of 150° with a free flight path of 1.313 m and a time resolution of 600 ps. The experimentally achieved depth resolution at the surface of W-containing Fe samples is 2–3 nm using incident Si ions. Model systems consisting of Fe layers with 0.7, 1.5 and 4.2 at% W and EUROFER steel (containing 0.34 at% W + Ta) were eroded by 200 eV D ions to a fluence of 1023 D/m2 at 310 K and 900 K. W depth profiles were measured using ToF-RBS, light impurities at the surface were detected using time-of-flight elastic recoil detection analysis (ToF-ERDA). The data sets from the two techniques were analyzed self-consistently. In all cases W enrichment at the surface was observed. The enrichment at 310 K is in good agreement with SDTrimSP simulations if the experimentally achieved depth resolution is taken into account. Annealing of the model systems with 0.7 and 1.5 at% W to 900 K for 10 h in vacuum resulted also in a W-enriched surface layer.

4. Erosion of EUROFER steel by mass-selected deuterium ion bombardment

Subjects: Nuclear engineering. Atomic power, TK9001-9401
Abstract: The erosion behaviour of EUROFER steel due to mono-energetic deuterium (D) ion bombardment in the energy range of 100–1000 eV/D was investigated. At low fluences, the sputtering yield is comparable to that of pure iron (Fe). It then decreases with increasing fluence and tends toward a steady state at larger fluences. The largest experimentally investigated fluences are of the order of several 1024 D/m2. The yield reduction is more pronounced for lower D impinging energies. A simple model is presented within which the evolution of the yield can be described by an exponential decay, using empirical values for the fitting parameters. In this model, the yield reduction is caused by preferential sputtering of Fe and the consequent development of a tungsten- (W-) enriched surface layer. SDTrimSP simulations also confirm the appearance of a W-enriched surface layer. However, the experimentally observed fluence dependence of the sputtering yield could not satisfactorily be reproduced in these simulations. The resulting enrichment layer thicknesses below 1 Å stretch the physics model implemented in SDTrimSP beyond its validity range. Experimentally, surface enrichment of W was qualitatively confirmed in Rutherford backscattering and sputter X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy measurements. However, the measured depth profiles are very likely influenced by the observed surface roughening caused by the D irradiation. Electron microscopy revealed the inhomogeneous W distribution on the un-irradiated sample as well as a grain-dependence of erosion and grain-dependent topography development. The inclusion of surface topography in the description of the erosion could be the key to improve the agreement between model predictions and the experiment.

5. Nitrogen transport in ASDEX Upgrade: Role of surface roughness and transport to the main wall

Abstract: We have studied the retention of nitrogen in surfaces with varying roughness and the transport of nitrogen from the divertor to the outer midplane in experiments at the tokamak ASDEX Upgrade. To allow for a reliable identification of nitrogen retained from the plasma exposure, 5.3 · 1021 atoms of the tracer isotope 15N were injected into the private flux region of the plasma. On polished W samples exposed to the plasma in the outer divertor, the N content peaks to both sides of the strike line with an areal density of 1.5 · 1020 15N/m2 and drops to a value of 1.0 · 1020 15N/m2 in the strike line region. In contrast, the N content of samples with a rougher surface peaks at the strike line and reaches areal densities of 3.0 · 1020 15N/m2. The N deposition at the outer limiters was measured via samples exposed on the midplane manipulator. At the limiter position the 15N areal density reaches a value of 0.2 · 1020 15N/m2, only a factor of ten smaller than the areal densities in the divertor. However, a comparison to WallDYN simulations shows that the observed N content is roughly a factor of 4 smaller than the value predicted by these simulations. Possible reasons for this discrepancy are the toroidal asymmetric main wall geometry, which currently cannot be fully included in the simulations, or an enhanced re-erosion of deposited N.

Abstract: Tungsten (W) will be used as material for plasma-facing components (PFCs) in the divertor of ITER and interact with Helium (He) ions either from initial He plasma operation or from Deuterium-Tritium (DT) fusion reactions in the active operation phase. Laboratory experiments reported that in a specific operational window of impact energy, ion fluence, and surface temperature (Ein ≥ 20 eV, ϕ ≥ 1 × 1024 He+mBt=2.5T,Ip=0.8MA,Paux≃8.0MW Tsurf ≥ 1000 K) a modification of W surfaces occurs resulting in the formation of He-induced W nanostructures. Experiments in ASDEX Upgrade H-mode plasmas (Ein=37keV T, ϕ≃0.75×1024He0m−2 MA, Paux ≃ 8.0 MW) in He have been carried out to investigate in detail (a) the potential growth of W nanostructures on pre-damaged W samples incorporating He nanobubbles, and (b) the potential ELM-induced erosion of W nanostructure. Both W surface modifications were generated artificially in the GLADIS facility by He bombardment of W samples at ϕ≃1×1024He0m−2 keV (a) to ϕ ≃ 0.75 × 1024 He0mϕ≃1.6×1024He+m−2 at Tsurf ≃ 1800 K and (b) ϕ ≃ 1 × 1024 He0m−2 at Tsurf ≃ 2300 K prior to exposure in the divertor manipulator of ASDEX Upgrade. Though in part (a) conditions of W nanostructure growth with a total He ion fluence of ϕ ≃ 1.6 × 1024 He+m−2 and peak He ion impact energies above 150 eV were met, no growth could be detected. In part (b) lower density plasmas with more pronounced type I ELMs, carrying energetic He ions in the keV range, were executed with the strike-line positioned on 2 µm thick W nanostructure accumulating a fluence of ϕ ≃ 0.8 × 1024 He+m−2. Post-mortem analysis revealed that co-deposition by predominantly W, and Boron (B), eroded at the main chamber wall and transported into the divertor, took place on all W samples. Erosion of W nanostructure or its formation was hindered by the fact that the outer divertor at the location of the samples was turned under these He plasma conditions into a net deposition zone by W, B and Carbon (C) ions. The surface morphology with large roughness and effective surface area act as a catcher for the impinging impurities. Thus, apart from operation in the existence diagram of W nanostructure with respect to Tsurf, ϕ, and Ein, also the impinging impurity flux contribution needs to be considered in predictions concerning the formation of W nanostructures.

Abstract: We have modelled net and gross erosion of W in low-density l-mode plasmas in the low-field side strike point region of ASDEX Upgrade by ERO and Particle-in-Cell (PIC) simulations. The observed net-erosion peak at the strike point was mainly due to the light impurities present in the plasma while the noticeable net-deposition regions surrounding the erosion maximum could be attributed to the strong E ×B drift and the magnetic field bringing eroded particles from a distance of several meters towards the private flux region. Our results also imply that the role of cross-field diffusion is very small in the studied plasmas. The simulations indicate net/gross erosion ratio of 0.2–0.6, which is in line with the literature data and what was determined spectroscopically. The deviations from the estimates extracted from post-exposure ion-beam-analysis data (∼0.6–0.7) are most likely due to the measured re-deposition patterns showing the outcomes of multiple erosion-deposition cycles.

Abstract: A global heat flux model based on a fractional derivative of plasma pressure is proposed for the heat transport in fusion plasmas. The degree of the fractional derivative of the heat flux, α, is defined through the power balance analysis of the steady state. The model was used to obtain the experimental values of α for a large database of the Joint European Torus (JET) carbon-wall as well as ITER like-wall plasmas. The fractional degrees of the electron heat flux are found to be α

Abstract: An overview of recent results obtained at the tokamak ASDEX Upgrade (AUG) is given. A work flow for predictive profile modelling of AUG discharges was established which is able to reproduce experimental H-mode plasma profiles based on engineering parameters only. In the plasma center, theoretical predictions on plasma current redistribution by a dynamo effect were confirmed experimentally. For core transport, the stabilizing effect of fast ion distributions on turbulent transport is shown to be important to explain the core isotope effect and improves the description of hollow low-Z impurity profiles. The L–H power threshold of hydrogen plasmas is not affected by small helium admixtures and it increases continuously from the deuterium to the hydrogen level when the hydrogen concentration is raised from 0 to 100%. One focus of recent campaigns was the search for a fusion relevant integrated plasma scenario without large edge localised modes (ELMs). Results from six different ELM-free confinement regimes are compared with respect to reactor relevance: ELM suppression by magnetic perturbation coils could be attributed to toroidally asymmetric turbulent fluctuations in the vicinity of the separatrix. Stable improved confinement mode plasma phases with a detached inner divertor were obtained using a feedback control of the plasma β. The enhanced Dα H-mode regime was extended to higher heating power by feedback controlled radiative cooling with argon. The quasi-coherent exhaust regime was developed into an integrated scenario at high heating power and energy confinement, with a detached divertor and without large ELMs. Small ELMs close to the separatrix lead to peeling-ballooning stability and quasi continuous power exhaust. Helium beam density fluctuation measurements confirm that transport close to the separatrix is important to achieve the different ELM-free regimes. Based on separatrix plasma parameters and interchange-drift-Alfvén turbulence, an analytic model was derived that reproduces the experimentally found important operational boundaries of the density limit and between L- and H-mode confinement. Feedback control for the X-point radiator (XPR) position was established as an important element for divertor detachment control. Stable and detached ELM-free phases with H-mode confinement quality were obtained when the XPR was moved 10 cm above the X-point. Investigations of the plasma in the future flexible snow-flake divertor of AUG by means of first SOLPS-ITER simulations with drifts activated predict beneficial detachment properties and the activation of an additional strike point by the drifts.

Abstract: Plasma catalysis has drawn attention in the past few decades as a possible alternative to the Haber-Bosch process for ammonia production. In particular, radio frequency plasma assisted catalysis has the advantage of its adaptability to the industrial scale. However, in the past years, very few experimental studies have focused on the synthesis of ammonia from nitrogen/hydrogen radio frequency plasma. As a consequence, to date, there has been little agreement about the complex mechanisms underlying the radio frequency plasma-catalyst interactions. Gaining such an understanding is therefore essential for exploiting the potential of radio frequency plasma catalysis for ammonia production. In this study, we present results of ammonia formation from a nitrogen/hydrogen radio frequency plasma both without and with a tungsten catalyst for different initial nitrogen ratios. High yields of ammonia up to 32% at 25/75% of nitrogen/hydrogen were obtained using a combination of radio frequency low pressure plasma and a W surface as a catalyst. Furthermore, based on chemical analysis of the catalytic surface composition, a formation pathway of ammonia via the Eley-Rideal mechanism between adsorbed nitrogen and hydrogen from the gas phase is presented.

Abstract: Within the EUROfusion MST1 work package, a series of experiments has been conducted on AUG and TCV devices to disentangle the role of plasma fueling and plasma shape for the onset of small ELM regimes. On both devices, small ELM regimes with high confinement are achieved if and only if two conditions are fulfilled at the same time. Firstly, the plasma density at the separatrix must be large enough (), leading to a pressure profile flattening at the separatrix, which stabilizes type-I ELMs. Secondly, the magnetic configuration has to be close to a double null (DN), leading to a reduction of the magnetic shear in the extreme vicinity of the separatrix. As a consequence, its stabilizing effect on ballooning modes is weakened. Peer Reviewed Article escrit per 365 autors/autores: Labit, B.; Eich, T.; Harrer, G. F.; Wolfrum, E.; Bernert, M.; Dunne, M.

12. Ammonia production in nitrogen seeded plasma discharges in ASDEX Upgrade

Subjects: Nuclear and High Energy Physics, Hydrogen, Divertor, Analytical chemistry, chemistry.chemical_element, Nitrogen, Methane, Ammonia production, chemistry.chemical_compound, Ammonia, Nuclear Energy and Engineering, chemistry, Deuterium, ASDEX Upgrade, General Materials Science
Abstract: In present tokamaks nitrogen seeding is used to reduce the power load onto the divertor tiles. Some fraction of the seeded nitrogen reacts with hydrogen to form ammonia. The behaviour of ammonia in ASDEX Upgrade is studied by mass spectrometry. Injection without plasma shows strong absorption at the inner walls of the vessel and isotope exchange reactions. During nitrogen seeding in H-mode discharges the onset of a saturation of the nitrogen retention is observed. The residual gas consists of strongly deuterated methane and ammonia with almost equal amounts of deuterium and protium. This confirms the role of surface reactions in the ammonia formation. The results are consistent with findings in previous investigations. A numerical decomposition of mass spectra is under development and will be needed for quantitative evaluation of the results obtained.

Abstract: Time-of-flight Rutherford backscattering spectroscopy (ToF-RBS) with incident heavy ions offers a substantially improved depth resolution compared to conventional RBS with incident He ions. The new Garching ToF-RBS detector is located at a scattering angle of 150° with a free flight path of 1.313 m and a time resolution of 600 ps. The experimentally achieved depth resolution at the surface of W-containing Fe samples is 2–3 nm using incident Si ions. Model systems consisting of Fe layers with 0.7, 1.5 and 4.2 at% W and EUROFER steel (containing 0.34 at% W + Ta) were eroded by 200 eV D ions to a fluence of 1023 D/m2 at 310 K and 900 K. W depth profiles were measured using ToF-RBS, light impurities at the surface were detected using time-of-flight elastic recoil detection analysis (ToF-ERDA). The data sets from the two techniques were analyzed self-consistently. In all cases W enrichment at the surface was observed. The enrichment at 310 K is in good agreement with SDTrimSP simulations if the experimentally achieved depth resolution is taken into account. Annealing of the model systems with 0.7 and 1.5 at% W to 900 K for 10 h in vacuum resulted also in a W-enriched surface layer.

Abstract: The influence of surface morphology modifications on the sputtering yield of thin Fe films by monoenergetic Ar ions is studied by using a highly sensitive quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) technique. The morphology changes are induced by prolonged sputtering up to a total Ar fluence of 8 × 1021 m−2. Atomic force microscopy (AFM) measurements are performed to analyse the sample topography before and after irradiation and to determine surface roughness parameters. Numerical modelling with the codes SDTrimSP and SDTrimSP-2D are performed for comparison. Our investigations show that by using the local distribution of projectile impact angles, as derived from AFM measurements, as well as the elemental composition of the samples as an input to the codes SDTrimSP and SDTrimSP-2D the agreement between experiment and simulations is substantially improved.

Abstract: The ASDEX Upgrade (AUG) programme, jointly run with the EUROfusion MST1 task force, continues to significantly enhance the physics base of ITER and DEMO. Here, the full tungsten wall is a key asset for extrapolating to future devices. The high overall heating power, flexible heating mix and comprehensive diagnostic set allows studies ranging from mimicking the scrape-off-layer and divertor conditions of ITER and DEMO at high density to fully non-inductive operation (q95 = 5.5, ) at low density. Higher installed electron cyclotron resonance heating power 6 MW, new diagnostics and improved analysis techniques have further enhanced the capabilities of AUG. Stable high-density H-modes with MW m−1 with fully detached strike-points have been demonstrated. The ballooning instability close to the separatrix has been identified as a potential cause leading to the H-mode density limit and is also found to play an important role for the access to small edge-localized modes (ELMs). Density limit disruptions have been successfully avoided using a path-oriented approach to disruption handling and progress has been made in understanding the dissipation and avoidance of runaway electron beams. ELM suppression with resonant magnetic perturbations is now routinely achieved reaching transiently . This gives new insight into the field penetration physics, in particular with respect to plasma flows. Modelling agrees well with plasma response measurements and a helically localised ballooning structure observed prior to the ELM is evidence for the changed edge stability due to the magnetic perturbations. The impact of 3D perturbations on heat load patterns and fast-ion losses have been further elaborated. Progress has also been made in understanding the ELM cycle itself. Here, new fast measurements of and Er allow for inter ELM transport analysis confirming that Er is dominated by the diamagnetic term even for fast timescales. New analysis techniques allow detailed comparison of the ELM crash and are in good agreement with nonlinear MHD modelling. The observation of accelerated ions during the ELM crash can be seen as evidence for the reconnection during the ELM. As type-I ELMs (even mitigated) are likely not a viable operational regime in DEMO studies of 'natural' no ELM regimes have been extended. Stable I-modes up to have been characterised using -feedback. Core physics has been advanced by more detailed characterisation of the turbulence with new measurements such as the eddy tilt angle—measured for the first time—or the cross-phase angle of and fluctuations. These new data put strong constraints on gyro-kinetic turbulence modelling. In addition, carefully executed studies in different main species (H, D and He) and with different heating mixes highlight the importance of the collisional energy exchange for interpreting energy confinement. A new regime with a hollow profile now gives access to regimes mimicking aspects of burning plasma conditions and lead to nonlinear interactions of energetic particle modes despite the sub-Alfvénic beam energy. This will help to validate the fast-ion codes for predicting ITER and DEMO.

Abstract: The impact of the divertor geometry on global plasma confinement in type I ELMy H-mode has been investigated in the JET tokamak equipped with ITER-Like Wall. Discharges have been performed in which the position of the strike-points was changed while keeping the bulk plasma equilibrium essentially unchanged. Large variations of the global plasma confinement have been observed, the H98 factor changing from typically 0.7 when the outer strike-point is on the vertical or horizontal targets to 0.9 when it is located in the pump duct entrance. Profiles are mainly impacted in the pedestal but core gradient lengths, especially for the density, are also modified. Although substantial differences are observed in the divertor conditions, none seem to correlate directly with the confinement. Modelling with the EDGE2D-EIRENE and SOLEDGE2D-EIRENE transport codes exhibits differences in the energy losses due to neutrals inside the separatrix, but orders of magnitude are too low to explain simply the impact on the confinement.

Abstract: Plasma-wall interactions have been studied in the full-W ASDEX Upgrade during its dedicated helium campaign. Relatively clean plasmas with a He content of >80% could be obtained by applying ion cyclotron wall conditioning (ICWC) discharges upon changeover from D to He. However, co-deposited layers with significant amounts of He and D were measured on W samples exposed to ICWC plasmas at the low-field side (outer) midplane. This is a sign of local migration and accumulation of materials and residual fuel in regions shadowed from direct plasma exposure albeit globally D was removed from the vessel. When exposing W samples to ELMy H-mode helium plasmas in the outer strike-point region, no net erosion was observed but the surfaces had been covered with co-deposited layers mainly consisting of W, B, C, and D and being the thickest on rough and modified surfaces. This is different from the typical erosion-deposition patterns in D plasmas, where usually sharp net-erosion peaks surrounded by prominent net-deposition maxima for W are observed close to the strike point. Moreover, no clear signs of W nanostructure growth or destruction could be seen. The growth of deposited layers may impact the operation of future fusion reactors and is attributed to strong sources in the main chamber that under suitable conditions may switch the balance from net erosion into net deposition, even close to the strike points. In addition, the absence of noticeable chemical erosion in helium plasmas may have affected the thickness of the deposited layers. Retention of He, for its part, remained small and uniform throughout the strike-point region although our results indicate that samples with smooth surfaces can contain an order of magnitude less He than their rough counterparts.

Abstract: The desorption of D implanted into Be with a superficial oxide layer is studied. The different oxide thicknesses and implantation at different energies resulted in a strong variation of the fraction stopped within the oxide layer. Thermal desorption of D was subsequently performed, intermitted by nuclear reaction analysis for assessment of the D depth distributions and total retained amounts. For the conditions, where part of the D was deposited in the Be substrate, a sharp decrease of the retained amount of D occurs around 200 °C. This is attributed to the release from metallic Be. Correspondingly, the D and O depth profiles show that above 200 °C the remaining D is only retained in the BeO layer. Apparently, the superficial BeO layer does not act as a diffusion barrier for D that is released from the metallic substrate. The retained amount of D deposited within the BeO layer decreases steadily and is not completely released at 350 °C, the foreseen bake-out temperature in ITER.

Abstract: In the ITER tokamak, injection of nitrogen is foreseen to decrease the heat loads on the divertor surfaces. However, once dissociated, nitrogen atoms react with hydrogen isotopes to form ammonia isotopologues. The formation of tritiated ammonia may pose some issues with regards to tritium inventory and operation duty cycle. In this paper, we report a study of the effect of three parameters of relevance for the fusion environment on the ammonia production, including the presence of a catalytic surface, sample temperature and noble gas addition. Results of ammonia formation from N2/H2 RF plasma (both with and without tungsten or stainless steel surface) show the importance of the presence of a catalyst in the ammonia formation process. By increasing the temperature of the W samples up to 1270 K, ammonia formation demonstrated a continuous decrease due to two major factors. For high temperatures above 650 K and 830 K, for stainless steel and W, respectively, the reduction results from the thermal decomposition of ammonia. For the lower temperature range, the temperature rise leads to the formation of more stable nitrides that do not tend to react further with hydrogen to form NH2 and NH3. Interestingly, the addition of helium or argon to the N2/H2 plasma show opposite effects on the ammonia production. He effectively decreases the percentage of NH3 by acting as a barrier for the surface processes. On the other hand, argon impacts the plasma processes more, probably by increasing the active nitrogen species in the plasma and as a consequence the percentage of formed ammonia.

Abstract: In this paper well defined test samples are used to show how the analysis depth and the matrix material influence the depth resolution of nuclear reaction analysis. The reaction D( 3 He, p)α is used to detect. The influence of the atomic number and the overlayer thickness on the depth resolution is studied by covering 10 nm thin deuterated amorphous carbon (a–C:D) films on silicon with tungsten (ZW=74) and titanium (ZTi=22) of various thicknesses between 500 nm and 8 μm. The most probable depth profiles are calculated from the experimental data with the program NRADC, which implements Bayesian statistics. The resulting apparent layer width of the deuterium containing layer broadens with increasing thickness of the coating and this broadening is more pronounced for coatings with higher Z. These apparent layer widths are a measure for the achievable depth resolution. They are in good agreement with depth resolutions calculated with RESOLNRA. To investigate the

Abstract: Nitrogen seeding, necessary for divertor heat-load mitigation in ITER, has been shown to lead to ammonia formation which would be a severe operational and safety issue in ITER. Predictions of ammonia production in ITER are based on data from present day fusion devices. Ammonia is mainly detected by residual gas analysis (RGA). Detection of ammonia is impeded by the presence of water and methane which, in a mixed H-D system, leave signatures in the same range of the mass spectra. A statistical model is used to ascribe an average isotope ratio to each gaseous species. The model is tested with simulated RGA recordings with varying concentration of ammonia to evaluate the sensitivity to fitting parameter boundaries, noise in the recordings and mis-matching cracking patterns. The analysis shows that the fitting procedure may in some occasions substitute species among each other, resulting in faulty concentrations. Nevertheless, the right choice of parameter boundaries ensures correct fitting results. Finally, the fitting procedure is applied to experimental data from nitrogen-seeeded discharges at AUG and JET.

Abstract: The impact of lithium (Li) on plasma performance was investigated at the ASDEX Upgrade tokamak, which features a full tungsten wall. Li pellets containing 1.6 × 1020 Li atoms were launched with a speed of 600 m s−1 to achieve deep penetration into the plasma and minimize the impact on the first wall. Homogeneous transient Li concentrations in the plasma of up to 15% were established. The Li sustainment time in the plasma decreased with an increasing heating power from 150 to 40 ms. Due to the pellet rate being restricted to 2 Hz, no Li pile-up could take place. No significant positive impact on plasma properties, as reported from other tokamak devices, could be found; the Li pellets rather caused a small reduction in plasma energy, mainly due to enhanced radiation. Due to pellet injection, a short-lived Li layer was formed on the plasma-facing components, which lasted a few discharges and led to moderately beneficial effects during plasma start-up. Most pellets were found to trigger type-I ELMs, either by their direct local perturbation or indirectly by the altered edge conditions; however, reliability was less than 100%.

Abstract: In this paper, we present the use of focused MeV ion beams to study the distribution of deuterium (D), boron (B) and nitrogen (N) on tungsten (W) samples exposed in the divertor region of the ASDEX Upgrade tokamak during 15N-seeded L-mode discharges in deuterium and during non-seeded H-mode discharges in helium. In both experiment samples of various surface roughness were exposed and analyzed: W coatings on milled or polished graphite substrates and bulk W samples, ranging from the roughest (milled) to the smoothest (bulk W), to study the effects of surface roughness on deposition profiles of D, B and N. In the case of samples from the 15N experiment, we found that D, N and B are distributed quite homogeneously over the sample on the micrometer scale with some small variation inside the analysed area. The surface densities show strong variations in the poloidal direction, with maximum values slightly above the strike point. The amounts of the retained (D, B, N) were strongly correlated with the surface roughness of the samples, being the highest on the rough samples. Samples originating from the He campaign showed inhomogeneous distribution of impurities with a distinct micro-scale structure, which is most pronounced on pre-damaged W samples, where a rough fuzz-like surface is created during the exposure in the GLADIS machine. We observe a distinct difference in behavior of deposited B profiles from both experiments with higher retention of B in the He experiment.

Abstract: The 2014–2016 JET results are reviewed in the light of their significance for optimising the ITER research plan for the active and non-active operation. More than 60 h of plasma operation with ITER first wall materials successfully took place since its installation in 2011. New multi-machine scaling of the type I-ELM divertor energy flux density to ITER is supported by first principle modelling. ITER relevant disruption experiments and first principle modelling are reported with a set of three disruption mitigation valves mimicking the ITER setup. Insights of the L–H power threshold in Deuterium and Hydrogen are given, stressing the importance of the magnetic configurations and the recent measurements of fine-scale structures in the edge radial electric. Dimensionless scans of the core and pedestal confinement provide new information to elucidate the importance of the first wall material on the fusion performance. H-mode plasmas at ITER triangularity (H = 1 at ßN ~ 1.8 and n/nGW ~ 0.6) have been sustained at 2 MA during 5 s. The ITER neutronics codes have been validated on high performance experiments. Prospects for the coming D–T campaign and 14 MeV neutron calibration strategy are reviewed. This work has been carried out within the framework of the EUROfusion Consortium and has received funding from the Euratom research and training programme 2014–2018 under grant agreement No 633053.

Abstract: In this contribution we present results from the first N2 seeding experiments in JET performed after installation of the ITER-like Wall. Gas balance measurements for seeded L-mode discharges indicate very strong N2 retention as well as a potential increase in D2 retention. The possible influence of ammonia production on this apparent retention is discussed. Plasma parameters and impurity content were monitored throughout the seeded discharges as well as during subsequent clean-up discharges. These experiments give first insight into phenomena related to the use of nitrogen as seeding gas in JET with the ITER-like Wall, such as ammonia production and nitrogen legacy. © 2013 Elsevier B.V.

27. Retention and release mechanisms of deuterium implanted into beryllium

Abstract: The fraction of deuterium (D) that is retained upon irradiation of beryllium (Be) as well as the temperatures at which implanted D is released are of importance for the international fusion experiment ITER, where Be will be used as an armor material. The influence of single parameters on retention and release is investigated in laboratory experiments performed under well defined conditions with the aim to identify dominant underlying mechanisms and thus be able to predict the behavior of the Be wall in ITER. Recent progress in the quantification of retained fractions and release temperatures as well as in the understanding of the governing mechanisms is presented. The retained fraction upon implantation of D at 1 keV into Be ( 1 1 2 ¯ 0 ) to fluences far below the saturation threshold of 1021 m−2 is almost 95%, the remaining 5% being attributed to reflection at the surface. At these low fluences, no dependence of the retained fractions on implantation energy is observed. At fluences of the order of 1021 m−2 and higher, saturation of the irradiated material affects the retention, leading to lower retained fractions. Furthermore, at these fluences the retained fractions decrease with decreasing implantation energies. Differences in the retained fractions from implanted Be ( 1 1 2 ¯ 0 ) and polycrystalline Be are explained by anisotropic diffusion of interstitials during implantation, leading to an amount of surviving D–trap complexes that depends on surface-orientation. Temperature-programmed desorption (TPD) spectra are recorded after implantation of fluences of the order of 1019 m−2 at various energies and simulated by means of a newly developed code based on coupled reaction–diffusion systems (CRDS). The asymmetric shape of the TPD peaks is reproduced by introducing a local D accumulation process into the model.

Abstract: Numerous experiments have been performed in the past few years on solid hydride deposition under beryllium-seeded plasma action or on energetic hydrogen implantation into metallic beryllium. This article reports on calculations carried out using first-principles density functional theory (DFT) and discusses the results with respect to thermal desorption experiments. The structures of amorphous beryllium hydride were investigated for various H/Be ratios. They were compared to the structure of the organized BeH2 crystal as a test for the validity of this model. The formation and reactivity of atomic vacancies were also investigated, together with atomic hydrogen trapping. Hints are proposed for hydrogen detrapping mechanisms.

30. Structure-dependent deuterium release from ion implanted beryllium: Comparison between Be(1 12¯0) and Be(poly)

Abstract: The temperature-driven release of deuterium implanted as keV ions into metallic beryllium is measured by temperature-programmed desorption (TPD). TPD spectra from single and polycrystalline Be implanted with 1 keV ions are compared. The high-temperature desorption stage (T > 700 K) is attributed to the release of deuterium trapped at several types of energetically different ion-induced defects. A release peak around 850 K is recorded in the single crystal, while in the polycrystal all deuterium desorbs below this temperature. An increase in the maximum release temperature is observed after implantation of the polycrystal with higher ion energies (2 and 3 keV). We propose an interpretation of the experimental results based on two types of traps, with depth distributions adapted to the implantation energy. Preliminary TMAP7 calculations qualitatively reproduce the shifts in the maximum desorption temperature, observed in the polycrystal at different implantation energies. The difference between the single and the polycrystal is explained by a higher density of surviving defects in the single crystal. Diffusion of mobile defects to grain boundaries and subsequent annihilation is proposed as the dominant mechanism for differences in deuterium desorption from Be(1 1 2 ¯ 0) and Be(poly).

Abstract: In 2013 a new bulk tungsten divertor, Div-III, was installed in ASDEX Upgrade (AUG). During the concept and design phase of Div-III the option of adaptable divertor instrumentation and divertor modification as contribution for divertor investigations in preparation of ITER was given a high priority. To gain flexibility for the test of divertor modifications without affecting the operational space of AUG, the large divertor manipulator, DIM-II, was designed and installed. DIM-II allows to retract 2 out of 128 outer divertor target tiles including the water cooled support structure into a target exchange box and to replace these targets without breaking the vacuum of the AUG vessel. DIM-II is based on a carriage-rail system with a driving rod pushing a front-end with the target module into the divertor position for plasma operation. Three types of front-ends are foreseen for physics investigations: (i) modified standard targets clamped to the standard cooling structure, (ii) dedicated front-ends making use of the whole available volume of about 230 × 160 × 80 mm 3 and (iii) actively cooled/heated targets for cooling water temperatures up to 230 °C. This paper presents the DIM-II design including the FEM calculations for the modified divertor support structure and the front-end options, as well as the test procedure and operation mode.

Abstract: We present the Raman microscopy ability to detect and characterize the way hydrogen is bonded with elements that will be used for ITER's plasma facing components. For this purpose we first use hydrogenated amorphous carbon samples, formed subsequently to plasma-wall interactions (hydrogen implantation, erosion, deposition...) occurring inside tokamaks, to demonstrate how this technique can be used to retrieve useful information. We pay attention in identifying which spectroscopic parameters are sensitive to the local structure (sp 3 /sp 2) and which gives information on the hydrogen content using isothermal and linear temperature ramp studies on reference samples produced by plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition. We then focus on the possibility to use this fast, non-destructive and non-contact technique to characterize the influence of hydrogen isotope implantation in few nanometers of graphite and beryllium as C is still used in the JT-60 tokamak and Be is used in JET and will be used as plasma-facing component in the future reactor ITER. We also pay attention on implantation in tungsten oxide which may be formed accidently in the machine., Physica Status Solidi C, 2014

Abstract: Analytical results of a complete JET cryopump regeneration, including the nitrogen panel, following the first ITER-Like Wall campaign are presented along with the in-situ analyses of residual gas. H/D mixtures and impurities such as nitrogen and neon were injected during plasma operation in the vessel to study radiation cooling in the scrape-off-layer and divertor region. The global gas inventory over the campaign is incomplete, suggesting residual volatile impurities are remaining on the cryogenic panel. This paper presents results on a) residual deuterium on the panel which is related to the campaign very low, b) impurities like nitrogen which sticks on the panel and c) the ammonia production which can be observed in the RGA spectrum., 7 pages, 3 figures.

Wischmeier and JET EFDA contributors The former all-carbon wall on JET has been replaced with beryllium in the main torus and tungsten in the divertor to mimic the surface materials envisaged for ITER. Comparisons are presented between Type I H-mode characteristics in each design by examining respective scans over deuterium fuelling and impurity seeding, required to ameliorate exhaust loads both in JET at full capability and in ITER. Attention is focused upon a common high-triangularity, single-null divertor configuration at 2.5MA, q95 3.5 yielding the most robust all-C performance. Contrasting results between the alternative linings are found firstly in unseeded plasmas, for which purity is improved and intrinsic radiation reduced in the ITER-like wall (ILW) but normalised energy confinement is 30% lower than in all-C counterparts, owing to a commensurately lower (electron) pedestal temperature. Divertor recycling is also radically altered, with slower, inboard-outboard asymmetric transients at ELMs and spontaneous oscillations in between them. Secondly, nitrogen seeding elicits opposite responses in the ILW to all-C experience, tending to raise plasma density, reduce ELM frequency, and above all to recover (electron) pedestal pressure, hence global confinement, almost back to previous levels. A hitherto unrecognised role of light impurities in pedestal stability and dynamics is consequently suggested. Thirdly, while heat loads on the divertor outboard target between ELMs are successfully reduced in proportion to the radiative cooling and ELM recurrence effects of N in both wall environments, more surprisingly, average power ejected by ELMs and estimated scrape-off-layer pressure ratio during the approach to outboard detachment also both decline in the same proportion for the ILW. Finally, inter-ELM W sources in the ILW divertor tend to fall with N input, although core accumulation possibly due to net ELM erosion still leads to significantly less steady conditions than in all-C plasmas. This limitation of ILW H-modes so far will be readdressed in future campaigns to continue progress towards a fully-integrated scenario suitable for D-T experiments on JET and for "baseline" operation on ITER. The diverse changes in behaviour between all-C and ILW contexts demonstrate essentially the strong impact which boundary conditions and intrinsic impurities can have on tokamak-plasma states.

Abstract: The atomistic understanding of retention and release processes of deuterium in beryllium is reached by comparing well-defined experiments on Be(0 0 0 1) and Be(11–20) single crystals, as well as polycrystalline Be to simulations. Temperature programmed desorption spectra are recorded after implantation of D fluences of ∼3 × 10 19 m −2 . The experimental spectra are modelled as a coupled reaction diffusion system (CRDS). The single atomistic steps are described by a set of rate equations. Activation energies for the single processes are calculated from density functional theory. The changes in retained amounts and desorption temperatures for different crystal orientations, implantation depths and temperature ramps were successfully reproduced with the CRDS code. Anisotropic self-interstitial diffusion and fast diffusion along grain boundaries are among the important mechanisms that have to be taken into account in the simulations.

Abstract: The oxidation behaviour of Be in air was studied as a function of temperature. Below 660 °C oxidation is limited by diffusion of Be through the growing BeO layer and closed oxide layers up to 100 nm thickness are formed. Above 660 °C a rapid increase in the oxidation rate sets in. Secondary electron micrographs show that this fast oxidation goes along with massive structural changes of the surfaces. Oxidised samples were exposed on the witness-manipulator of PISCES B to deuterium atoms reflected from a plasma-exposed W target. The energy of the reflected D was varied by changing the bias voltage on the W target (floating, −50 V and −100 V). The BeO temperature during exposure was varied between 20 and 250 °C. The erosion of the exposed surfaces and the uptake of D were investigated by ion beam analysis. The retained amount of D increases with increasing bias voltage and decreasing exposure temperature. At room temperature saturation of the D concentration at about 12 at.% in a surface layer correlated to the maximum particle range is observed. At temperatures above 100 °C the concentration level decreases strongly, but retention spreads over the total oxide thickness.

Abstract: The chemical reactions during the implantation of oxygen ions into a thin beryllium–tungsten alloy layer on a beryllium substrate and subsequent annealing are investigated by depth-resolved chemical analysis using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. By using variable photon energies at a synchrotron, identical kinetic energies of the photoelectrons from the different core levels are selected. This enables a chemical analysis at identical depth intervals for all core levels. From these sets of photoelectron spectra chemically resolved depth profiles are determined. The depth profiles allow an interpretation of the reaction and diffusion steps during implantation and annealing steps. This leads to a detailed understanding of the complex processes in a multi-component solid.

Abstract: Various accelerator-based ion beam analysis techniques are reviewed in simulations as well as experimentally with emphasis on their depth resolution and sensitivity for detecting deuterium in beryllium. The depth information contained in the ? particles that originate from the nuclear reaction analysis (NRA) with 3He is compared to elastic recoil detection analysis (ERDA) with various projectiles. The best depth resolution for D implanted up to approximately 150?nm below the Be surface is obtained with medium-heavy ion ERDA: for ERDA with 10?MeV 28Si ions a resolution of 47?nm (2?) is experimentally attained. ERDA with 4He and 28Si as well as NRA are applied to analyse a Be sample implanted with 3?1022?D?m?2 at an energy of 3?keV per atom. The resulting depth profile can only be resolved with medium-heavy ion ERDA. The depth profile of the D concentration features a plateau close to the sample surface with a constant D atomic fraction of 0.1. It drops to zero around a depth of 150?nm, corresponding to the calculated ion range.

Abstract: The retention and release of deuterium is compared for clean metallic beryllium and beryllium oxide. Deuterium energies of 600 eV per atom are applied and implantation fluences are above the threshold for supersaturation. Desorption experiments subsequent to implantation into metallic Be are extrapolated to a perfectly homogeneous implantation spot. It is assessed that more than 80% of the D retained after implantation with homogeneous high fluences are released below 500 K. All retained D is released below 800 K. The oxide layer is grown by stepwise oxidation of Be in oxygen atmosphere and characterized by Rutherford backscattering spectrometry. The oxide thickness is large enough to guarantee deuterium implantation completely within the oxide layer. The release of deuterium from BeO proceeds at a slow rate over the whole temperature range from 350 to 850 K. At this temperature only 75% of the amount retained after implantation has desorbed.

Abstract: Recent successful experiments with nitrogen as a seeding gas in fusion plasma devices, together with the decision to use beryllium as an armor material in the international fusion experiment ITER, have triggered interest in interactions of energetic N ions with Be and the influence of possible compound formation on parameters relevant to reactor operation and safety. Laboratory experiments are performed to investigate the properties of the 'mixed material' formed upon bombardment of bulk Be with energetic (keV) nitrogen ions. The formation of beryllium nitride within the implantation zone of a few nanometres is observed by x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and Rutherford backscattering spectrometry. Upon implantation of N at 1.5 keV per atom, saturation of the Be surface with N occurs at a fluence of 2 × 1018 N cm−2 and a retained areal density of approximately 4 × 1016 N cm−2. The nitride undergoes an ordering process upon annealing, but does not decompose at temperatures up to 1000 K. The influence of such nitride layers on the retention and release of D implanted with different fluences is investigated by nuclear reaction analysis and temperature-programmed desorption. The nitride layer does not act as a diffusion barrier for out-diffusing hydrogen isotopes. A partial sputter yield of 0.013 N/D as a lower limit is measured upon bombardment of the nitride layer with D at 2 keV. These erosion measurements are influenced by the strong tendency of the nitride to oxidize.

Abstract: In this paper, we present new temperature-programmed desorption measurements from implanted single and polycrystalline beryllium as well as new computational results on the diffusion of interstitials through an undisturbed beryllium lattice. The threshold fluence for the appearance of a low-temperature desorption region around 460 K after implantation of 1 keV D ions into polycrystalline beryllium is determined to be 1.2×1021 m−2. In the high-temperature release region, an implantation energy-dependent shift in desorption temperatures is observed after implantation to very low fluences. It is explained by the variation of the mean distance from the surface for atoms implanted at different energies rather than by changes in the activation energy for detrapping. Morphological investigations of the surface of polycrystalline beryllium after several implantation and annealing cycles show a strong dependence of the damage on the surface orientation of grains. This dependence correlates with the preferred diffusion of interstitials parallel to basal planes of the beryllium lattice as calculated within the formalism of density functional theory.

Abstract: Optical diagnostic systems of ITER are foreseen to include metallic, plasma-facing, electromagnetic radiation reflecting components called first mirrors (FMs). Molybdenum coatings are important candidates for these components. Depending on the local plasma parameters of the reactor, the mirrors may be under net erosion or deposition conditions. In this work, we exposed molybdenum coatings to a high-flux deuterium plasma in order to test their roughening limits under erosion conditions. The high energy of deuterium ions (500 eV on average) results in more vigorous roughening of the surface compared with lower energy ions (200 eV). Longer exposure (3 × 1020 ions cm−2) of the 200 eV ions results in only a slightly increased roughness compared with shorter exposure (6.8 × 1019 ions cm−2). Both phenomena match to the theory regarding roughening dynamics of physical sputtering. A comparison of results in this work with previous studies gives support to the hypothesis that roughening is flux and temperature dependent. Partial delamination of the coatings is observed upon exposure at room temperature, but not at an elevated temperature (200 °C). In summary, Mo coatings will remain functional in the ITER environment under the expected conditions. However, changes in the expected conditions such as 500 eV mean energy of impinging charge exchange neutrals or

Abstract: Before nitrogen can be used as a radiator for edge plasma temperature control in experiments with beryllium as the wall material, the compatibility of nitrogen-containing plasma with beryllium has to be tested. Therefore beryllium samples were exposed to a variety of mixed N2/D2 plasmas in PISCES-B and codeposits from the sputtered material were collected. It was found that introducing N2 to a D2 plasma reduces Be erosion significantly but recovery to the pre-N2 levels is possible in pure D2 plasma. Berylliated vessel walls can be a reservoir for N2 and chemical processes probably play a significant role during nitriding and N2 removal. Nitrided target samples remain conductive and do not lead to additional arcing, but codeposits are insulating. Thermal desorption measurements of nitrided and un-nitrided target samples are comparable, while codeposits show a slightly reduced D retention. However, D release for both target and codeposits is shifted ≈100 K to higher temperatures, above 510 K.

48. Plasma–wall interactions with nitrogen seeding in all-metal fusion devices: Formation of nitrides and ammonia

Abstract: Nitrogen is routinely used to control the power load to the divertor targets of tokamak fusion reactors. However, its chemical reactivity can have implications on design and operation of a fusion device. In this contribution experimental results from recent years on three topics are briefly presented. These are the formation of nitrides, the sputtering of beryllium in the presence of nitrogen and the production of ammonia. Laboratory experiments have shown that surface nitrides are formed both on beryllium and tungsten upon exposure to energetic nitrogen ions. Erosion rates of Be by energetic N ions are in good quantitative agreement with modeling. Erosion upon exposure of Be to a mixed N/D plasma is reduced with respect to a pure D plasma. Finally, the appearance of ammonia has been observed in mixed N/D plasmas as well as in the exhaust gas of AUG and JET. The production rate in AUG reached 5% of the injected N atoms in a series of three subsequent N2-seeded discharges.

Abstract: Low-activation steels are attractive candidates for wall materials in future nuclear-fusion power plants. Through a process called preferential sputtering, an enriched tungsten (W) layer is expected to develop on these steels, lowering erosion and thus increasing their lifetime and reducing contamination of the fusion plasma. However, the process of preferential sputtering may be counteracted by interdiffusion of W and iron (Fe). In this article, we investigate a simplified model system of such low-activation steels with a W-rich layer on the surface, by sputter depositing a thin W layer on top of pure Fe substrates. We investigate the processes that are activated when this model system is subject to temperatures relevant in the context of nuclear fusion reactors and assess the temperatures at which interdiffusion is expected to influence W surface concentrations. This is done by annealing a binary W-Fe system and analyzing the resulting concentration profiles by means of Rutherford backscattering spectrometry (RBS) and focused ion beam cross-sectioning (FIB). For annealing temperatures above 1000 K, an intermediate phase was observed to have formed, both between the Fe and W layer as well as on the surface of the W layer. This intermediate phase was determined to be Fe2W using Sputter X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and time-of-flight Rutherford backscattering spectrometry (ToF-RBS). The laterally averaged growth rate of this phase was determined to be (1.0±0.1)×10−18m2s at 1050 K and (2.8±0.2)×10−18m2s at 1100 K.

Abstract: In the ITER tokamak, injection of nitrogen is foreseen to decrease the heat loads on the divertor surfaces. However, once dissociated, nitrogen atoms react with hydrogen isotopes to form ammonia isotopologues. The formation of tritiated ammonia may pose some issues with regards to tritium inventory and operation duty cycle. In this paper, we report a study of the effect of three parameters of relevance for the fusion environment on the ammonia production, including the presence of a catalytic surface, sample temperature and noble gas addition. Results of ammonia formation from N2/H2 RF plasma (both with and without tungsten or stainless steel surface) show the importance of the presence of a catalyst in the ammonia formation process. By increasing the temperature of the W samples up to 1270 K, ammonia formation demonstrated a continuous decrease due to two major factors. For high temperatures above 650 K and 830 K, for stainless steel and W, respectively, the reduction results from the thermal decomposition of ammonia. For the lower temperature range, the temperature rise leads to the formation of more stable nitrides that do not tend to react further with hydrogen to form NH2 and NH3. Interestingly, the addition of helium or argon to the N2/H2 plasma show opposite effects on the ammonia production. He effectively decreases the percentage of NH3 by acting as a barrier for the surface processes. On the other hand, argon impacts the plasma processes more, probably by increasing the active nitrogen species in the plasma and as a consequence the percentage of formed ammonia.
