Surface modification of tungsten due to carbon ion implantation A. Martinavičius
Introduction • The first wall of future fusion devices will be made from the materials W, C and Be. • The W tiles in the divertor chamber are exposed to high heat and carbon impurity fluxes which will lead to high C concentrations in the W.
Schematic view of model • Not all atoms are immediately sputtered. • Some atoms are activated and relocate. • Other atoms after relocation also are sputtered. Target
1 2 3 K Model Ii – flux of arriving ions, Yi – sputtering yield αij – sticking coefficient
Calculations K. Krieger, J. Roth / J. Nucl. Mater. 290-293 (2001) 107-111
