  1. Four-dimensional conditional averaging tomography of rotating plasma ejection from cylindrical detached plasma Reviewed International journal

    Detached plasma formation is a way to reduce the heat load on the wall in magnetic fusion devices. This study proposes a novel analysis technique consisting of the conditional averaging, sliding window, and tomography to reveal the spatiotemporal behavior of the rotating radial ejection event of detached plasma, which further contributes to local heat load reduction. The used equipment is a high-speed camera and an electrostatic probe located at the periphery of the linear plasma device NAGDIS-II. By applying this method, four-dimensional (4D) behavior of the emission structure along time (1D) and space perpendicular and parallel to the magnetic field (3D) was clarified; a rotating distorted structure appears as a precursor, which is then scraped and transported radially and axially. The proposed method is widely applicable to short-term rigid-body rotating structures, especially in linear plasmas.

  2. Machine learning aided line intensity ratio method for helium-hydrogen mixed recombining plasmas Reviewed International coauthorship International journal

    The helium line intensity ratio (LIR) with the help of a collisional radiative (CR) model has long been used to measure the electron density, n e , and temperature, T e , and its potential and limitations for fusion applications have been discussed. However, it has been reported that the CR model approach leads to deviations in helium-hydrogen mixed plasmas and/or recombining plasmas. In this study, a machine learning (ML) aided LIR method is used to measure n e and T e from spectroscopic data of helium-hydrogen mixed recombining plasmas in the divertor simulator Magnum-PSI. To analyze mixed plasmas, which have more complex spectral shapes, the spectroscopy data were used directly for training instead of separating the intensities of each line. It is shown that the ML approach can provide a robust and simpler analysis method to deduce n e and T e from the visible emissions in helium-hydrogen mixed plasmas.

    The detachment processes of the hydrogen (H) and deuterium (D) plasmas are comparatively investigated in the linear plasma device NAGDIS-II. The laser Thomson scattering measurements demonstrate that the recombination rate of the H plasma is greater than that of the D plasma as the neutral pressure increases in the molecular activated recombination (MAR) dominant detachment phase. As the recombination process by MAR is strongly dependent on the vibrational and rotationally excited states of the molecule, the rovibrational quantum state populations of the H and D molecules are measured using the Fulcher-α band spectroscopy. The results indicate that the vibrational temperature in the electronic ground state is considerably higher than the rotational temperature during detachment. The reaction rate coefficients for MARs due to charge exchange chains (CX-MAR) and dissociative attachment chains (DA-MAR) are calculated by the collision-radiation model under the measured temperature conditions. It can be observed that the CX-MAR is larger than the DA-MAR for both H and D, and that the CX-MAR of H is larger than the CX-MAR of D at electron temperatures T e above 1 eV. In consideration of the experimentally observed vibrational and rotational excitation temperatures, the reaction rate coefficients of CX-MAR and DA-MAR are increasing in the low T e region. These calculations are in accordance with the experimental results, which indicate that recombination processes due to MAR are more predominant in the H plasma compared to the D plasma. Furthermore, a transition from MAR to electron-ion recombination processes is observed in the D plasma at T e below 0.5 eV.

    The effects of helium plasma irradiation, which has been widely studied on metals, on germanium have been experimentally investigated. The irradiation temperature ranges from 430 to 720 K, and the incident ion energy ranges from 30 to 100 eV. From the scanning electron microscope (SEM) observation, it was found that various morphological changes including pits, nanocones, nanopillars, and roughened surfaces occur. The spatial scale of the morphological change was analyzed by applying fast Fourier transform to SEM micrographs. Thermal desorption spectroscopy analysis suggests that He atoms implanted on Ge play major roles in forming roughened surfaces at a surface temperature higher than 500 K.

    Nano-/microstructures can be formed with the aid of small amounts of impurities during deposition with noble gas plasma irradiation, which is referred to as codeposition etching. This can be a new method for lithography-free semiconductor nanofabrication. Here, the codeposition etching method was employed with argon plasma and molybdenum (Mo) impurities on various semiconductors. Structures can be formed only on substrates that have a lower sputtering yield than the seed impurity. The density, area, and height of structures are related to both the impurity deposition rate and the substrate material. Moreover, two mechanisms of impurity nucleation are proposed according to time dependence results for the formation of the structures.

    In order to simulate hydrogen (H) plasma in the linear plasma device NAGDIS-II, we have modified the fluid code LINDA-NU to allow the simultaneous calculation of multiple ion species consisting of hydrogen atomic ions ((Formula presented.)) and molecular ions ((Formula presented.)). In this simulation, H and (Formula presented.) neutrals are assumed to be uniformly distributed in space in order to obtain initial qualitative results. The fraction of (Formula presented.) ions increases as the (Formula presented.) molecular density increases, and the recombination process between (Formula presented.) and electrons is observed to reduce the particle flux to the target plate. With an increase in H density, the electron density increases due to the decrease in ion flow velocity due to the change exchange process, and the electron temperature decreases to less than 1 eV, leading to the detached plasma formation attributed to the electron-ion recombination process.

    The tungsten (W) fuzzy structure was widely observed in linear plasma devices under the fusion-relevant condition. This type of structure can be used in many application fields benefiting from its larger surface area and high optical absorbance. However, W fuzz can be barely formed when the sample temperature is lower than 900 K. This study decreased the threshold to ∼800 K using W co-deposition on a Si nanocones substrate. It suggests that the conventional threshold temperature is only necessary for He bubble rupture to create a rough surface that induces the uneven trapping of the adatom diffusion.

    ZrC dispersion-strengthened W exhibits high strength/ductility, low ductile-to-brittle transition temperature, and excellent thermal shock resistance, making it a promising candidate plasma-facing material for future fusion devices. In this study, surface modification of 0.5 wt.% ZrC dispersion-strengthened W (WZrC) under low energy and high fluence He plasma irradiation at high temperature was presented. Under the energy of 90 eV and fluence ranging from 6 × 1024 He·m−2-2 × 1026 He·m−2 He irradiation at 920 °C, a typical fuzz nanostructure appeared on the W matrix of WZrC. The thickness of fuzz layer is proportional to the square root of He irradiation fluence. The fuzz showed comparable thickness and structural features to pure W, indicating limited effects of the particle’s addition on resistance to high fluence He irradiation at high temperatures. Under continuous He injection, the fuzz would grow extending onto the particle area, making the particle obscured. Besides, the erosion behavior of particles under He plasma irradiation has been investigated, which is thought to be dominated by a sputtering process. Under the He influence of 6 × 1024 He·m−2, only nanopores were observed in the surface region. With fluence increasing to 5 × 1025 He·m−2, the surface became relatively uneven with larger holes. W aggregated in spots and distributed on the surface of the particle, which might be the result of subthreshold sputtering and deposition. When fluence further increased to 2 × 1026 He·m−2, the particles were eroded completely and covered by the extended fuzz, forming cavities. In addition, distinctive layered nanotendrils were observed above the cavities, which were characterized to consist of inner W-riched skeletons and outer Zr-riched layers. It indicates that the layered nanotendrils should be the result of fuzz extension combined with particle sputtering/deposition.

    This study reports on the formation of self-organized silicon (Si) nanostructures by 75 eV helium (He) plasma irradiation at normal incidence without the presence of impurities. In contrast to the featureless surface after normal incidence argon (Ar) ion beam irradiation without the co-deposition of impurities, the Si surface exhibits the development of faceted nanostructures under 75 eV He plasma irradiation. The faceted structures are interspersed with valleys that extend in two orthogonal directions, imparting a mountain-like morphology to the surface. Our investigation verifies that the He bubbles align themselves along the direction perpendicular to the surface underneath these valleys. Furthermore, the presence of He bubbles induces distortion in the surface layer and leads to the formation of an amorphous Si layer. The underlying mechanism driving this surface evolution could be attributed to the instability induced by the presence of He bubbles.

    Low-energy ion beam irradiation, combined with the introduction of impurities, presents a promising approach for nanopatterning silicon (Si) surfaces. In this research, we investigate the surface evolution of Si (100) surfaces irradiated by 75 eV helium (He) plasma, in the presence of tantalum (Ta), traditionally regarded as an impurity incapable of initiating pattern formation, as evidenced in prior studies. The Ta impurities are pre-deposited onto the Si surfaces using the magnetron sputtering method, which offers a more controlled and quantifiable approach compared with the conventional co-deposition route. After irradiation at 800 K, dense cone arrays are produced on the Si surface. The growth of the cones is explored for fluence spanning (1-10) × 1025 m−2. The cross-sectional scanning electron microscope images indicate that the cone lengths and base width are well characterized by t1/2 dependence. The kinetics of the cone growth follow Fick’s law, characterized by an effective diffusive mechanism with the coefficients of diffusion: D = 6.49 ± 0.83 × 10−16 m−2 s−1. Transmission electron microscope observations reveal that the cone has distinct inner and outer parts with different microstructures and a clear interface. The growth mechanism of these cones is elucidated as a composite process involving preferential sputtering, the destabilizing influence of He bubbles, and the migration of adatoms.

    Plasma-driven science is defined as the artificial control of physical plasma-driven phenomena based on complex interactions between nonequilibrium open systems. Recently, peculiar phenomena related to physical plasma have been discovered in plasma boundary regions, either naturally or artificially. Because laboratory plasma can be produced under nominal conditions around atmospheric pressure and room temperature, phenomena related to the interaction of plasma with liquid solutions and living organisms at the plasma boundaries are emerging. Currently, the relationships between these complex interactions should be solved using science-based data-driven approaches; these approaches require a reliable and comprehensive database of dynamic changes in the chemical networks of elementary reactions. Consequently, the elucidation of the mechanisms governing plasma-driven phenomena and the discovery of the latent actions behind these plasma-driven phenomena will be realized through plasma-driven science.

    Fuzzy nanostructured tungsten (W) is formed by helium (He) plasma irradiation. In fusion devices, the thermophysical properties are important to consider the response to pulsed heat load from the plasma. In this work, the thermal conductivity of the W fuzz is measured using a pulsed light heating thermoreflectance method. A detailed model was developed to explain the entire temporal evolution of the thermoreflectance signal. It was found that the thermal conductivity of the nanostructured layer was deduced to be in the range of 0.18%&#x2013;0.21% of the pure (ideal) W and lower than the previously reported highly porous metallic materials. In addition to the porosity, the specific nonuniform nanofiber structure is likely to contribute to the low effective thermal conductivity.

    Volumetric plasma recombination in a detached deuterium (D) plasma was experimentally studied in the linear plasma device NAGDIS-II. The radial distributions of the electron temperature (Te) and the electron density (ne) were measured by upstream and downstream laser Thomson scattering (LTS) systems and D-atom excited states of the Balmer series (n = 3-7) were measured by optical emission spectroscopy (OES). The results indicated that the electron static pressure, particle flux and heat flux present a two-step reduction with an increasing neutral pressure, suggesting that molecule activated recombination (MAR) and electron-ion recombination (EIR) were activated, respectively. The difference in the distributions of the atomic state population densities was observed to be a feature of the transition from the MAR-dominant phase to the EIR-dominant phase. The transition between the two phases had a distinct boundary at Te ∼0.7 eV, which was considered a transition point between the phases. The ratios of the atomic state population densities showed different features in the two phases, and are expected to be useful in characterizing the phase and degree of plasma detachment.

    In this study, we applied machine learning to optical emission spectroscopy (OES) data and device parameters from the linear plasma device NAGDIS-II to explore the potential application of machine learning for predicting electron density, ne, and temperature, Te. The covered ranges of ne and Te, which were measured by an electrostatic probe, are 3.6 × 1017–2.4×1019 m−3 and 0.3–7.1eV, respectively. A three hidden layer neural network (NN) is introduced to model the relationship between ne/Te and the combination of line intensities, radial position, and device parameters. It is shown that the errors in ne and Te become 18.0 and 18.8%, respectively, which were almost the same level for the electrostatic probe, using all available data. Lasso regression and greedy algorithm are used to select the necessary line emissions. It is shown that four or five line intensities are sufficient to obtain almost the same quality as the one with all the other lines.

    <p>We have applied the multivariable analysis technique called the proper orthogonal decomposition (POD) to both the divertor particle flux distribution and the electron pressure distribution in the core region of LHD. The cross-correlation analysis indicates that 3rd, 4th, and 5th POD modes of the electron pressure distribution are highly correlated with the divertor footprint index which is a measure of where the peak position of the particle flux distribution is located on the inner divertor plate. Both the 3rd and 4th modes seem to correspond to the shift of the electron pressure peak position from the magnetic-axis radius. In contrast, 5th mode has a strong influence on the peripheral gradient of the electron pressure distribution. Their relationships with the divertor footprint could be explained by the finite βand the Pfirsch-Schlüter current effects.</p>

    The surface of GaN has been modified by a simple method that irradiates the substrate with Ar plasma and impurity codeposition, which is termed CoDE (Co-Deposition Etching). Unique structures were formed by the assistance of a small amount of Mo deposition without degradation of the crystal structure. The size of protrusions on the structure is influenced by the amount of deposited Mo particles. The mechanism for the structure formation is discussed based on transmission electron microscopy (TEM) observations and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) measurements. Based on the GaN surface roughness, we have demonstrated random laser action in the UV region under photoexcitation. The lowest threshold (0.06 J/cm2) for random lasing was observed where the size of the structure is larger than 0.05 μm2, which was formed under conditions with the least amount of deposition. The correlation between the submicro/nanosize structures generated by plasma irradiation and lasing was evaluated in detail. The critical parameter to optimize the random lasing was determined to be the size of structures that can be modified by the Mo deposition rate. The results confirmed that the emission properties can be controlled by the processing conditions. This random laser fabrication technique is expected to be widely applicable to various direct-bandgap compound semiconductors.

    Rod-like protrusion structures were formed on tungsten by helium plasma exposure with various impurity gases seeded as nitrogen (N2) and argon (Ar). Surface morphology observations and field emission current measurements were done for two samples. Cross-section observation shows that the inside of the protrusions was solid but not porous like conventional fuzz. Therefore, a new formation mechanism which is different from fuzz can be considered. The field emission current from N2-seeded case was slightly higher than that from fuzz, but much lower than that from NTBs, while the field emission current from Ar-seeded case was similar to that from NTBs. The difference in field emission current could be due to the different morphology of the tips between two samples.

    Superconducting (SC) tokamak JT-60SA plays an essential role in fusion research and development by supporting and complementing the ITER project, providing directions to the DEMO design activity and fostering next generation scientists and engineers. Since the short circuit incident at the terminal joints of equilibrium field coil #1 during the integrated commissioning (IC) in March 2021, both EU and JA implementing agencies (IAs) have examined how to ensure safe operation of JT-60SA by mitigating the risk of possible discharge occurrence inside the cryostat. Based on the experience of the global Paschen tests, the IAs have established a strategy of risk mitigation measures, which is a combination of (i) reinforcement of insulation, (ii) avoiding unnecessary voltage application to the coil systems and (iii) immediate de-energization of the coils when deteriorated vacuum conditions are detected. Thanks to the considerable efforts of the Integrated Project Team members, the IC restarted in May 2023. After confirmation of the SC state of the coil systems (TF, EF and CS), the coil energization test and the plasma operation phase 1 (OP-1) started. The first plasma was successfully achieved on 23 October 2023 with a limited value of voltage and current applied to the coils. The plasma configuration control was also confirmed with low plasma current and low auxiliary heating power conditions. Based on the IO-F4E-QST collaboration, activities of JT-60SA have been shared with the IO and provided an important lesson for ITER assembly and commissioning, and will provide an outstanding contribution to fusion research at large. After OP-1, maintenance & enhancement phase 1 (M/E-1) starts from January 2024, in which in-vessel components are installed, and heating and diagnostic systems are extensively upgraded to allow a high power heating experiment planned in OP-2. In order to make the best use of JT-60SA, a newly organized JT-60SA experiment team will refine the research plan for the future high heating power operation phase.

    <p>Helium (He)-Tungsten (W) co-deposition experiments were conducted in the linear plasma device Co-NAGDIS at a temperature of 1223 K to observe the characteristics of fuzz growth on the W surface with auxiliary W deposition. The dependence on the deposition rate of W was investigated and a clear difference in fuzz thickness was found between He-only and co-deposition experiments. In addition, the fuzz structures on a single sample exhibited a spatially nonuniform distribution, which was probably caused by the nonuniformity in the deposition rate.</p>

    <p>To investigate the isotope effect on the plasma detachment in helium (He) and hydrogen (H)/deuterium (D) mixture plasmas, we performed H<sub>2</sub>, D<sub>2 </sub>or He gas puffing into He plasma in the linear plasma device NAGDIS-II. Axial distributions of electron density (<i>n</i><sub>e</sub>) and electron temperature (<i>T</i><sub>e</sub>) were obtained using a movable Langmuir probe. Additionally, optical emission spectroscopy (OES) was applied to measure axial distributions of Balmer lines and He I lines. When the neutral gas pressure was high (Δ<i>P<sub>n </sub></i>= 7 ∼10 mTorr), <i>n</i><sub>e </sub>distribution in He-D<sub>2 </sub>mixture plasma was similar to that in pure He plasma, showing a sharp decrease at the downstream region where <i>T</i><sub>e </sub>< 1 eV. In contrast, in He-H<sub>2 </sub>mixture plasma, a decrease in <i>n</i><sub>e </sub>was confirmed from upstream region where <i>T</i><sub>e </sub>> 1 eV. The upstream H<sub>α</sub>/H<sub>γ </sub>in He-H<sub>2 </sub>plasma was significantly larger than the D<sub>α</sub>/D<sub>γ </sub>in He-D<sub>2 </sub>plasma at the same <i>T</i><sub>e</sub>. This result indicated that molecular activated recombination (MAR) processes significantly occurred in He-H<sub>2 </sub>plasma, while electron-ion recombination (EIR) processes were dominant in He-D<sub>2 </sub>and pure He plasmas.</p>

    <p>For the development of a high nitrogen atom density source, we produced nitrogen plasmas and measured the nitrogen atom density using vacuum ultraviolet absorption spectroscopy (VUVAS) at high neutral gas pressure (>1.5 mTorr) and discharge power (>500 W) in the NAGDIS-T, which could generate spiral-shaped dissociative recombining plasmas. It was seen that the nitrogen atom density increases with increasing neutral gas pressure and discharge power, and it reached 6.2 × 10<sup>17 </sup>m<sup>−3</sup>. In the low gas pressure case, the estimated atom density was confirmed to be consistent with that measured by the actinometry method.</p>

    © 2019 Acta Materialia Inc. Low-energy helium (He) plasma irradiations were conducted on ruthenium (Ru) and rhenium (Re), which have hexagonal close packed (HCP) crystal structures. Growth of linear shaped fiberform nanostructures were identified on the surfaces of the both metals after the He plasma irradiation. We also conducted He plasma irradiation while Re particles were deposited on tungsten substrate; 3-mm-thick large scale fiberform nanostructures were grown on the surface. The crystal orientation was analyzed using diffraction patterns of Re and Ru nanofibers together with detailed transmission electron microscope observations. It was found that the growth of linear nanofibers has a preferential crystal orientation in the growth direction and it is always in the c-direction of the HCP crystals. Potential growth processes and mechanisms are proposed based on the experimental observations.

    © 2019 The Authors The objective of this study is to investigate the effects of neutron (n) irradiation on hydrogen isotope transport in tungsten (W). W samples were irradiated with neutrons in a fission reactor and then exposed to high flux deuterium (D) plasma at 563 K in a linear plasma device. The fraction of D release increased with increasing exposure time. In addition, the D retention in n-irradiated W increased in proportion to the square root of the plasma exposure time. These observations were explained by increase in the penetration depth of D with filling up displacement damages acting as strong trapping sites.

    © 2019 The Japan Society of Applied Physics. Ethylene decomposition via photocatalytic reaction using ultra-violet light was performed using an oxidized titanium (Ti) sheet and/or thin film samples fabricated by helium (He) plasmas treatments. We prepared nanostructured Ti samples formed by He plasma irradiation and additional thin film deposited samples using radio frequency magnetron sputtering. The samples prepared in this study had a slightly lower photocatalytic activity compared to the thin film deposited on tungsten nanostructure samples previously reported; the anatase formation was solely identified on Ti sheet samples and is hopeful for further improvement of photocatalytic activity of plasma treated titania.

    We have investigated detailed plasma structure around the recombination front region (RFR), where volume electron-ion recombination (EIR) strongly occurs in detached plasmas, by using two-dimensional (2D) movable probe system as well as laser Thomson scattering diagnostics. The 2D distribution of electron density, electron temperature, and plasma potential around the RFR, has been revealed for the first time. The spatial distribution of the particle loss rate due to EIR estimated from electron temperature and electron density profiles indicated that the three-dimensional structure of the RFR adopts a cone structure. Furthermore, in the peripheral region of the RFR, the radial profile of the electron density was widened locally with increasing cross-field transport caused by plasma fluctuation. From the heat transport analysis of electrons, it was found that the thermal relaxation process between electrons and ions is important for the cooling of electrons, and that the convection of electrons regulates electron heat transport near the RFR.

    © 2019 The Japan Society of Plasma Science and Nuclear Fusion Research. Helium induced nanostructures on tungsten were characterized by applying basic statistical analysis techniques to scanning electron microscope (SEM) images. As the analysis targets, pinhole- and fuzz-dominant surfaces irradiated with different ion fluences were employed. Although two-dimensional Fourier analysis of the normalized brightness of SEM images clarified several characteristic features, their differences are small to distinguish the dominant nanostructures. On the other hand, probability density functions (PDFs) of the normalized brightness indicate that hole- and fuzz-dominant surfaces have long tail and Gaussian-like shape, respectively. By using several indexes with considering the black and white saturation, it was found that kurtosis and Kullback- Leibler divergence could provide reasonable judgement as the characterization index.

    © 1973-2012 IEEE. In nuclear fusion reactors, unipolar arcing is a longstanding plasma surface interaction issue. In this paper, short summaries of morphology changes by helium plasma irradiation under fusion relevant conditions and ignition of arcing on the He irradiated surfaces are given. Helium plasma irradiation leads to surface morphology changes, and arcing can be ignited on the surface in response to pulsed heat load accompanied by plasma instabilities. Then, we focused on arcing ignited on large-scale fiberform nanostructures (LFNs) formed with deposition of metallic particles together with helium-ion irradiation. Dusts release from the arc spot and the amount of material erosion are discussed based on the experiments.

    © 2019 The Japan Society of Plasma Science and Nuclear Fusion Research. It is important in divertor physics research to investigate thermal response process of beryllium deposited tungsten to high transient heat load such as ELMs. We investigated the heat load on aluminum-coated tungsten by comparing the measured back surface temperature and calculation results of the one-dimensional heat conduction equation. When the plasma power was low enough so that the evaporation did not occur sufficiently, the heat load on the aluminum-coated tungsten was higher than the virgin tungsten. It was caused by the reduction in the energy reflection coefficient due to the formation of aluminum layer. The results suggested that the beryllium deposited layer adversely affects the heat load on the divertor plate when the heat load was not high such as Grassy-ELM.

    © 2019 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH &amp; Co. KGaA, Weinheim We have studied the validity of the double-probe method in recombining plasmas. Electron temperature (Te) measured with a double probe was quantitatively evaluated by taking into account the influences of plasma potential fluctuation, plasma resistivity, and electron density fluctuation on the current–voltage characteristics. Differential potential fluctuation and plasma resistivity between two electrodes have a minor effect on Te especially when the inter-distance is small (typically 1 mm). Scattering of measured Te due to the density fluctuation was sufficiently suppressed by making the data acquisition time long (typically 4 s) and taking the average. There is a good agreement between Te measured with the optimized double-probe method and that with laser Thomson scattering diagnostics.

    © 2019 The Japan Society of Plasma Science and Nuclear Fusion Research. A new laser Thomson scattering (LTS) measurement system in the upstream region of the linear plasma device NAGDIS-II is established in addition to the recently introduced LTS in the downstream. Further, horizontal distributions of the electron temperature and electron density were compared with those obtained from the Langmuir probe, indicating plasma disturbance due to the insertion of the probe head. We discuss the variation of the electron energy distribution function at upstream and downstream in the recombining plasma.

    © 2019 The Authors Large-scale mm thick fiberform nanostructures are grown when materials are subjected to high flux helium ions with tungsten particles (ions and neutrals) precipitation. Observations of the large-scale fiberform nanostructures (LFNs) were conducted by scanning electron microscope (SEM) and transmission electron microscope (TEM) analyses. In particular, this study focuses on membrane nanostructures. Membranes that contain He bubbles were always observed when LFNs covered the surface. We discuss the growth process of the membrane structures based on detailed observations.

    © 2019 The Authors Nano-tendril bundles (NTBs) were generated in DC He plasma with impurity gas-seeding (Ne and N 2 ) under sputtering-dominated conditions. NTB morphologies were characterized using the net erosion yield of samples. NTBs’ height and area were analyzed and ion fluence dependence was discussed. For both impurities, the number of NTBs increased steadily with increasing the fluence. It was revealed that NTB can be generated newly and continuously regardless of ion fluence. Surface observations suggested that micro-protrusions can evolve into NTBs. The effect of re-deposition of W was discussed based on SEM observations. Line-of-sight deposition seemed to play a key role of W feeder to enable NTBs to grow greater.

    © 2018 Elsevier B.V. Tungsten fuzz is a nanostructure formed on tungsten surface under helium plasma impact. In this work, we investigate this structure using the scattering of keV-energy protons. Energy spectra of scattered protons have double-peak shape that corresponds to the scattering from fuzz and underlying pure tungsten. The energy losses of protons in fuzz are estimated as the difference between primary beam energy and the energy corresponding to the local minimum between two peaks. Computer simulations with SRIM code also demonstrate double-peak shape of energy spectra of protons scattered from fuzzy target. Fuzz and pure tungsten stopping powers for protons are compared and fuzz density relative to pure tungsten is estimated and discussed. Evolution of H+energy spectra during fuzz irradiation by Ar+beam is measured and discussed.

    © 2018 Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH &amp; Co. KGaA, Weinheim Fiberform nanostructured niobium (Nb) was fabricated by one step helium (He) plasma irradiation. He ion implantation formed He nano-bubbles on a Nb plate and led to formation of protrusions while migrating in Nb matrix; fiberform nanostructures (FN) were grown when the fluence became high (&gt;1026 m−2). The necessary conditions for the formation of Nb FN were revealed to be the surface temperature range of 900–1100 K and the incident ion energy higher than 70 eV. The sample was oxidized at 573–773 K in an air atmosphere, and Pt nanoparticles were photo-deposited on the Nb2O5 samples. The surface was analyzed by scanning electron microscope, transmission electron microscope, x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and ultraviolet-visible spectrophotometry. Photocatalytic activity of the fabricated materials was studied using methylene blue (MB) decolorization process. An enhanced photocatalytic performance was identified on FN Nb2O5 substrate with Pt deposition.

    IEEE Experimental data on the effect of the thickness of a nanostructured layer present on the surface of a tungsten cathode on its arcing properties have been analyzed. It has been shown that if the nanostructured layer is not completely destroyed as a result of the operation of a cathode spot cell, the spot ``sinks&#039;&#039; in the layer, the spot cells group together, and the trajectory of the spot motion becomes ``entangled.&#039;&#039; To interpret the experimental results, the grouping of arc spot cells was simulated using a random walk model based on the Monte Carlo method into which an attractive force was introduced and assuming that the cell plasma density, i.e., the cell initiation probability, is proportional to 1/r&amp;#x00B2;, where r is the distance between two spot cells. It has been demonstrated that spot cells are entangled, forming a group and moving together when the attractive force between them is strong enough. When this force decreases and the directionality of the cells increases as the cathode spot shifts to a lower thickness region of the nanostructured layer, the velocity of motion of the spot increases and its trace left on the surface becomes narrower.

    Line emissions from helium (He) plasmas have been used for measurement of electron density and temperature in various situations. We performed measurements of He line intensities in recombining plasmas in a divertor simulator, followed by discussion of some potential difficulties of using the line intensity ratio (LIR) method in a divertor environment under detached conditions. When using four line emissions (501.6, 667.8, 706.5, and 728.1 nm), the discrepancy of the results compared to results from the laser Thomson scattering (LTS) method increased along with increasing gas pressure. However, the LIR method agreed well with LTS when a recombination sensitive line emission (447.1 nm) was added. The influence of the transport of metastable atoms is also discussed. Additionally, anomalous characteristics of the LIR method were revealed in hydrogen helium mixture plasmas when the temperature was in the range of 1-4 eV. These anomalies were likely attributable to the dissociative recombination of HeH+.

    Plasma irradiation was used to create nanostructured vanadium oxide with potential commercial and industrial applications. Morphology changes were induced at the nano- and micro-meter scale, accompanied by the growth of helium nanobubbles. Micrometer-sized pillars, cube-shaped nanostructures, and fuzzy fiberform nanostructures were grown on the surface
    the necessary conditions in terms of the incident ion energy and the surface temperature for those morphology changes were revealed. Hydrogen production experiments using a photocatalytic reaction with aqueous methanol solution were conducted on the fabricated samples. Enhanced H2 production was confirmed with the plasma irradiated nanostructured sample that had been oxidized in air atmosphere. Photocatalytically inactive vanadium oxide exhibited a high photocatalytic activity after nanostructurization of the surface by helium plasma irradiation.

    Growth of helium bubbles near the surface of metals leads to various morphology changes when sufficient helium ions are continuously implanted on the surface. In this study, low energy (&lt
    100 eV) helium plasma irradiations to various noble metals were conducted, and consequent surface morphology changes were analyzed. It was found that fiberform nanostructures were formed by the helium plasma irradiation on rhodium and ruthenium thin films, which were deposited by magnetron sputtering, and on platinum and iridium wires. Growth of fiberform structures were not identified on gold, silver, and palladium samples exposed to helium plasmas even though the irradiations were conducted at various surface temperatures, though pinholes were observed on palladium surface. We discussed the relation between the morphology changes and material properties.

    The stability with respect to a peelingballooning mode (PBM) was investigated numerically with extended MHD simulation codes in JET, JT-60U and future JT-60SA plasmas. The MINERVA-DI code was used to analyze the linear stability, including the effects of rotation and ion diamagnetic drift (w∗i), in JET-ILW and JT-60SA plasmas, and the JOREK code was used to simulate nonlinear dynamics with rotation, viscosity and resistivity in JT-60U plasmas. It was validated quantitatively that the ELM trigger condition in JET-ILW plasmas can be reasonably explained by taking into account both the rotation and w∗i effects in the numerical analysis. When deuterium poloidal rotation is evaluated based on neoclassical theory, an increase in the effective charge of plasma destabilizes the PBM because of an acceleration of rotation and a decrease in w∗i. The difference in the amount of ELM energy loss in JT-60U plasmas rotating in opposite directions was reproduced qualitatively with JOREK. By comparing the ELM affected areas with linear eigenfunctions, it was confirmed that the difference in the linear stability property, due not to the rotation direction but to the plasma density profile, is thought to be responsible for changing the ELM energy loss just after the ELM crash. A predictive study to determine the pedestal profiles in JT-60SA was performed by updating the EPED1 model to include the rotation and w∗i effects in the PBM stability analysis. It was shown that the plasma rotation predicted with the neoclassical toroidal viscosity degrades the pedestal performance by about 10% by destabilizing the PBM, but the pressure pedestal height will be high enough to achieve the target parameters required for the ITER-like shape inductive scenario in JT-60SA.

    Helium plasma irradiation on metal surfaces leads to the formation of metallic fuzzy nanostructures accompanied by the growth of helium bubbles in metals. The mechanism of the growth process, its impact for fusion devices, and potential application have been explored. Here we show enhanced growth of large-scale fuzz by precipitating additional metallic particles during helium plasma irradiation. The growth rate of the fuzzy structures became orders of magnitude greater than conventional fuzz growth
    in an hour of irradiation, 1 mm-thick visible tungsten and molybdenum fuzzy fur structures covered a tungsten metal substrate. Additional precipitation of metallic ions breaks the bottleneck diffusion process
    moreover, further acceleration in the growth rate could have occurred if the electric sheath shape was influenced by the grown structure and the electric field that formed around the structure started collecting ions.

    © 2017 IAEA, Vienna. This paper describes the recent progress in divertor simulation research using the GAMMA 10/PDX tandem mirror towards the development of divertors in fusion reactors. During a plasma flow generation experiment in the end cell of the GAMMA 10/PDX, ICRF heating in the anchor cell successfully extended the particle flux up to 3.3 1023 m2 s-1. Superimposing the short pulse of the ECH also attained a maximum heat flux of ∼30 MW m-2. We have succeeded in achieving and characterizing the detachment of the high-temperature plasma, which is equivalent to the SOL plasma of tokamaks, by using the divertor simulation experimental module (D-module) in the GAMMA 10/PDX end cell, in spite of using a linear device with a short magnetic field line connection length. Various gases (Ar, Xe, Ne and N2) are examined to evaluate the effect of radiation cooling against the plasma flow at the MW m-2 level in the divertor simulation region and the following results are obtained: (i) Xe gas was most effective in the reduction of heat and particle fluxes (1%, 3%, respectively) and has a stronger effect on electron cooling (down to ∼1.6 eV) in the used gas species. (ii) Ne gas was less effective. On the other hand, (iii) N2 gas showed more favorable effects than Ar in the lower pressure range. These results will contribute to the progress in detached plasma operation and in clarifying the radiation cooling mechanism towards the development of future divertors.

    Mass loss of nanostructured tungsten, which was formed by helium plasma irradiation, due to laser ablation, sputtering, and arcing was investigated. Below the helium sputtering energy threshold (&lt
    117 eV), sputtering by impurity gases such as nitrogen and oxygen was dominant. Sputtering yield became closer to theoretical value with increasing the incident ion energy, and sputtering by helium ions became the major contribution when the energy was &gt
    200 eV. Reduction in sputtering on nanostructured surface was observed. Arcing was initiated using laser pulses, and the erosion rate by arcing was measured. The erosion rate increased with arc current, while the erosion per Coulomb was not affected by arc current.

    W samples were exposed to He plasma in the MAGPIE, NAGDIS-II and PISCES-A across a range of sample temperatures between 473–1123 K. GISAXS was used to quantify the effect of plasma fluence and W surface temperature on He nano-bubble size distributions. In NAGDIS-II at 873 K nano-bubbles are exponentially distributed with mean diameters μ=0.64±0.01nm, similar to the value of μ=0.62±0.01nmfound for the MAGPIE plasma device at the much lower temperature of 473 K. Above ∼900 K nano-bubbles followed an approximately exponential distribution with μ &gt
    0.72 nm demonstrating a significant increase in nano-bubble sizes at higher temperatures.

    Pinholes are formed on surfaces of metals by the exposure to helium plasmas, and they are regarded as the initial process of the growth of fuzzy nanostructures. In this study, number density of the pinholes is investigated in detail from the scanning electron microscope (SEM) micrographs of tungsten and tantalum exposed to the helium plasmas. A power law relation was identified between the number density and the size of pinholes. From the slope and the region where the power law was satisfied, the fractal dimension D and s(min), which characterize the SEM images, are deduced. Parametric dependences and material dependence of D and s(min) are revealed. To explain the fractality, simple Monte-Carlo simulations including random walks of He atoms and absorption on bubble was introduced. It is shown that the initial position of the random walk is one of the key factors to deduce the fractality. The results indicated that new nucleations of bubbles are necessary to reproduce the number-density distribution of bubbles. (C) 2017 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

    Field electron emission from metal (tungsten, molybdenum, and tantalum) surfaces with different surface morphology was measured. Fuzz and loop samples had small increment in the emission current, whereas bubble samples marked huge increment in the current, accompanied by breakdown. The emission current became greater on the fuzzy samples than the loop samples probably because of more elongated morphology of fuzzy fiber. Among the materials, molybdenum had the lowest current. From Fowler-Nordheim plot analysis, it was revealed that fuzz samples had higher field enhancement factor than loop samples. Bubble samples marked the highest value in the field enhancement factor among the three types of morphology, likely due to the continuous emission from the craters formed after the breakdown. Molybdenum showed favorable properties in terms of suppressing the field emission and preventing the breakdown and the arcing in fusion reactor. From the scanning electron microscope observation, the size of the crater increases with the emission current on the bubble samples. Fuzzy structure was observed at the crater on the tantalum bubble surface after breakdown even without stationary plasma irradiation or stationary incidence of ion flux.

    The JT-60SA project has been implemented for the purpose of an early realization of fusion energy. With a powerful and versatile NBI and ECRF system, a flexible plasma-shaping capability, and various kinds of in-vessel coils to suppress MHD instabilities, JT-60SA plays an essential role in addressing the key physics and engineering issues of ITER and DEMO. It aims to achieve the long sustainment of high integrated performance plasmas under the high β N condition required in DEMO. The fabrication and installation of components and systems of JT-60SA procured by the EU and Japan are steadily progressing. The installation of toroidal field (TF) coils around the vacuum vessel started in December 2016. The commissioning of the cryogenic system and power supply system has been implemented in the Naka site, and JT-60SA will start operation in 2019. The JT-60SA research plan covers a wide area of issues in ITER and DEMO relevant operation regimes, and has been regularly updated on the basis of intensive discussion among European and Japanese researchers.

    © 2017 IAEA, Vienna. The synergistic effects of steady-state and pulsed plasma irradiation to material have been investigated in the device NAGDIS-PG (Nagoya DIvertor Simulator with Plasma Gun). The duration of the pulsed plasma was ∼0.25 ms. To investigate the pulsed plasma heat load on the materials, we developed a temperature measurement system using radiation from the sample in a high time resolution. The heat deposited in response to the transient plasma on a tungsten surface was revealed by using this system. When the nanostructures were formed by helium plasma irradiation, the temperature increase on the bulk sample was enhanced. The result suggested that the amount of absorbed energy on the surface was increased by the formation of nanostructures. The possible mechanisms causing the phenomena are discussed with the calculation of a sample temperature in response to the transient heat load.

    The density fluctuation was measured with a 70-GHz microwave interferometry system in the linear divertor plasma simulator NAGDIS-II while changing from the attached to the detached states. In the detached plasma, a large amplitude fluctuation of ≤ 10 kHz appeared in the peripheral region. The fluctuation has a maximum value at the neutral gas pressure of 30 - 34 mTorr. Further, the measurement of the light emission associated with the plasma recombination indicates that the large amplitude fluctuation is located at just downstream of the recombination front, in which the recombination process is the most enhanced.

    In this paper, we show the dynamic behaviors of a sheet plasma and the corresponding release of blob-like plasmas to the periphery of the sheet based on observation with a high-speed camera. We found that the plasma column moves in a transverse direction reciprocally when injecting a small amount of Ar gas to the He plasma from the plasma source region. The motion continued periodically at a frequency of similar to 5 kHz. The frequency of the plasma column motion decreased with increasing Ar gas flow rate and increasing magnetic field. The mechanism of the transverse motion is discussed. Furthermore, in response to the reciprocating motion, release of a blob-like plasma was observed. The differences in the behavior of the released plasma compared with the other linear devices are discussed.

    The resonant magnetic perturbation (RMP) island introduced in the stochastic edge of the large helical device (LHD) plasma plays an important role in the stabilization of the plasma detachment (Kobayashi et al 2013 Nucl. Fusion 53 093032). The plasma enters in the sustained detachment phase in the presence of an RMP once the line averaged density exceeds a critical value with a given input power. During detachment the enhanced radiation from the stochastic edge of the LHD undergoes several spatiotemporal changes which are studied quantitatively by an infrared imaging video bolometer (IRVB) diagnostic. The experimental results are compared qualitatively and quantitatively with the radiation predicted by the 3D transport simulation with fluid model, EMC3-EIRENE. A fair amount of qualitative agreement, before and after the detachment, is reported. The issue of overestimated radiation from the model is addressed by changing the free parameters in the EMC3-EIRENE code till the total radiation and the radiation profiles match closely, within a factor of two with the experimental observations. A better quantitative match between the model and the experiment is achieved at higher cross-field impurity diffusion coefficient and lower sputtering coefficient after the detachment. In this article a comparison, the first of its kind, is established between the quantified radiation from the experiments and the synthetic image obtained from the simulation code. This exercise is aimed towards validating the model assumptions against the experimentally measured radiation.

    © 2015 IAEA, Vienna. This paper assesses the three-dimensional (3D) effects of the edge magnetic field structure on divertor/scrape-off layer transport, based on an inter-machine comparison of experimental data and on the recent progress of 3D edge transport simulation. The 3D effects are elucidated as a consequence of competition between transports parallel () and perpendicular () to the magnetic field, in open field lines cut by divertor plates, or in magnetic islands. The competition has strong impacts on divertor functions, such as determination of the divertor density regime, impurity screening and detachment control. The effects of magnetic perturbation on the edge electric field and turbulent transport are also discussed. Parameterization to measure the 3D effects on the edge transport is attempted for the individual divertor functions. Based on the suggested key parameters, an operation domain of the 3D divertor configuration is discussed for future devices.

    Helium plasma irradiation leads to the formation of nanostructures on the surface when certain conditions are satisfied. The surface morphology changes due to helium plasma irradiation were investigated on single crystal tungsten samples with different crystal orientations. Differences in surface morphology changes were observed in (100) and (110) single crystal tungsten samples when the helium fluence was less than 10(25) m(-2). However, the differences disappeared as growth proceeded. Tungsten alloys were prepared in order to investigate the influence of the additional undersized atomic species on nanostructure growth. The influence of the doping of undersized atoms, i.e. 2 at% Fe doped and 2 at% Cr doped atoms, is presented.

    Behavior of arc spots was investigated in detail using a nanostructured tungsten specimen with different thicknesses of the nanostructured layer. From the observation using a fast framing camera, it was found that the velocity of the arc spots significantly altered as passing the boundary of the two layers. The changes in spot velocity and spot width were discussed theoretically using the ecton model. The fractal dimension of the arc trail evaluated by using a box-counting method was significantly changed. Also, the width of arc trail was increased with the nanostructured layer thickness. From the SEM analysis of the specimen, the amount of tungsten eroded by arcing for two different thickness cases was estimated, and the erosion rates were discussed. (C) 2014 The Authors.

    Field emission property of nanostructured tungsten formed by the exposure to a helium plasma is measured to investigate the initiation process of arcing in nuclear fusion devices. Field emission current from the nanostructured tungsten and tungsten with helium bubbles was significantly higher than that from the polished tungsten specimen. However, field enhancement factor was on the order of 100, which was almost comparable to that of bulk tungsten; the increase in the field emission current is attributed to primarily an increase in the effective emission surface area. From the calculation of thermo-field emission current from a heated tungsten, it is thought that a significant current emission can be still initiated even when the field enhancement factor is not so high when tungsten is exposed to high density plasmas such as the one accompanied with ELMs. (C) 2013 Elsevier B.V.

    The JT-60SA project implemented by Japan and Europe is progressing on schedule towards the first plasma in March 2019. After careful R&D, procurements of the major components have entered their manufacturing stages. In parallel, disassembly of JT-60U has been completed on time, and the JT-60SA tokamak assembly is expected to start in January 2013. The JT-60SA device, a highly shaped large superconducting tokamak with a variety of plasma control actuators, has been designed in order to contribute to ITER and to complement ITER in all the major areas of fusion plasma development necessary to decide DEMO reactor construction. Detailed assessments and prediction studies of the JT-60SA plasma regimes have confirmed these capabilities: using ITER- and DEMO-relevant plasma regimes, heating conditions, and its sufficiently long discharge duration, JT-60SA enables studies on magnetohydrodynamic stability at high beta, heat/particle/momentum transport, high-energy ion physics, pedestal physics including edge localized mode control, and divertor physics. By integrating these studies, the project provides 'simultaneous and steady-state sustainment of the key performance characteristics required for DEMO' with integrated control scenario development.

    It is found that resonant magnetic perturbation (RMP) fields have a stabilizing effect on the radiating edge plasma, realizing stable sustainment of radiative divertor (RD) operation in the Large Helical Device (LHD). Without RMP, thermal instability leads to radiative collapse. Divertor power load is reduced by a factor of 3-10 during the RMP-assisted RD phase, while maintaining relatively good core plasma confinement with confinement enhancement factor . It has also been demonstrated that the RMP field itself can initiate transition to RD operation by increasing perturbation strength, while keeping constant density and injection power. The results show a possibility of a new control knob for divertor power load in a 3D magnetic field configuration. It is also found that after the transition to RD, the energy confinement enhancement factor based on ISS04 scaling increases by a factor of 1.4 compared with the attached phase. The operation range of the RMP-assisted RD is identified in terms of RMP strength and radial location of the resonance layer of the RMP. A 3D edge radiation structure is analysed using the edge transport code EMC3-EIRENE and the results are compared with experiments. The comparison indicates that the application of RMP modulates the 3D edge radiation structure such that an intense radiation appears around the X-point of the m/n = 1/1 island in the case with RMP, while it is located at the inboard side without RMP. © 2013 IAEA, Vienna.

    Be-seeded, high-flux, deuterium/helium mixture plasma exposure experiments on tungsten target materials have been performed to simulate ITER all tungsten divertor erosion/modification and deposition phenomena. The exposure conditions are kept fixed at a typical low-ion-energy of 60 eV and a flux of 3-6 × 1022/m2/s. Sample temperature is 1123 K and plasma exposure times spanning 1050-10,100 s are explored. The typical ratio of He/D ions is 0.2 and Be content is 0.2%. A He-induced nanostructure layer is formed on the exposure surfaces of tungsten materials and the surface of the nanostructure is covered by a thin layer of Be and O. A fraction of the re-eroded Be from the target is deposited on a glassy carbon plate with line of sight to the tungsten target. Rutherford backscattering spectrometry analyses show that the Be redeposit layer is in the form of laminae. Small amounts of Mo, W and C are also found in the redeposited Be layer. Elastic recoil detection analyses show that D, He and H are also included in the redeposited Be layer. © 2013 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

    In this study, in order to clarify the influence of a probe electrode during probe measurements of an atmospheric pressure microwave plasma, simultaneous observations of probe current and the change of plasma shape using a high-speed camera have been done. Fast and random repetitions of attachment and detachment of the plasma torch to the probe electrode have been observed. It is found that the response time is related to ion sound speed. Different behaviors of the plasma torch for a floating metal electrode or an insulator have been observed.

    Sustaining a detached plasma is important for the reduction of the heat load on a divertor. The externally controlled methods such as gas puffing in the divertor region, etc. have been studied for maintaining detached plasmas. In the recent LHD experiments, a resonant magnetic perturbation (RMP) is utilized to establish the detached plasma, which is one of the candidates to reduce the divertor heat load. The finite plasma response field has been detected when the RMP is imposed, and its behavior is investigated from the viewpoint of the magnetic island dynamics. A parameter of the phase difference, Δ<i>θ</i> (defined as the phase difference between the plasma response field and the RMP), changes from antiphase to in-phase while the plasma transits from the attached to the detached states. Finally, when the Δ<i>θ</i> reaches at certain critical value, Δ<i>θ</i><sub>crit</sub>, the plasma enters the detached state. Since this critical value does not have a dependency on plasma beta and collisionality, Δ<i>θ</i><sub>crit </sub>seems to be a threshold to establish the detached plasma. From the viewpoint of magnetic island dynamics, the behavior of Δ<i>θ</i> approaching in-phase implies the "trend" of island growth. The detached plasma might be established in the case of the tendency for the plasma response field to reinforce the island width.

    The physical properties of tungsten with nanostructure on its surface are investigated focusing on the thermal radiation and cooling characteristics. First, direct evidence of substantial W surface cooling has been clearly shown with use of a very thin thermocouple inserted into W target, which solves an uncertainty associated with a radiation thermometer. Second, the above measurements of W surface temperature make it possible to estimate quantitatively the total emissivity from which we may evaluate the radiative power through the Stefan-Boltzmann equation, which is very important for mitigation evaluation of a serious plasma heat load to the plasma-facing component. © 2013 Elsevier B.V.

    In summary, we proposed saddle shaped stellarator system for vertical mode in toka-mak. These preliminary results demonstrate the feasibility of vertical stability, even if only two selected coils which are localized at one side of the torus. However as noted earlier, the experiment were conducted with the circular cross-section tokamak which is stable vertically. Further work is needed to confirm the improvement in the vertical stability in elongated tokamaks. In addition, very large coil current comparable to the plasma current are needed in our system. In order to reduce the current, future work also should focus on optimal configuration of the coils.

    Arcing is a long standing plasma-surface interaction issue in nuclear fusion research, and the issue has been revived recently from new points of view. In this study, arcing under fusion relevant conditions is demonstrated in a linear plasma device using a pulsed laser to mimic the transient heat load. Ignition conditions of arcing were investigated systematically by changing the laser power, plasma conditions, surface nature and so on. Moreover, the cross-sectional view of arc trail was observed by transmission electron microscope, and the erosion of nanostructured tungsten due to arcing was estimated. It was found that more than half of the nanostructured tungsten still remained after an arc spot run on the nanostructure.

    Helium plasma irradiation and electron heating experiments were conducted using tungsten in the divertor simulator NAGDIS-II. Helium plasma irradiation to tungsten led to the formation of nanostructures on the surface, while the nanostructures were annihilated after the potential of the specimen was changed to positive for several 10 min so that electrons irradiated the sample without ion irradiation. The specimens were analyzed in detail by transmission electron microscope with the help of focused ion beam technique. It is revealed that the helium nano-bubbles still remained even after the nanostructures were disappeared from the surface. Porosity of the nanostructured tungsten was measured from the TEM images.

    We have measured ion temperature as well as electron temperature in plasma blobs observed in a linear plasma device by using an improved ion sensitive probe. Current-voltage characteristics of the ion sensitive probe inside and outside plasma blobs were re-constructed with a conditional sampling method. It is clearly found that both ion and electron temperatures in plasma blobs decrease more slowly in a cross-field direction than those in a bulk plasma without plasma blobs. © 2012 American Institute of Physics.

    The validation of current decay model during the current quench was investigated in high (3p disruptive discharges on JT-60U. It is experimentally confirmed that the electron temperature does not play an important role in the determination of the current decay time in the initial phase of current quench and that values obtained from L/R model are two orders of magnitude larger than the experimental current decay time. The current decay time predicted by the modified L/R model, in which the time derivative of plasma inductance is taken into account, is in fairly good agreement with the experimental data. In future work, we need to perform the MHD equilibrium code for free-boundary condition such as DINA [5] and TSC [6] code under the axisymmetric assumption in order to clear up the determination mechanism of time derivative of plasma inductance.

    The status of ongoing research projects of tungsten R&D in Japan is summarized in this paper. For tungsten material development, a new improved fabrication technique, the so-called superplasticity-based microstructural modification, is described. This technique successfully improved fracture strength and ductility at room temperature. Recent results on vacuum plasma spray W coating and W brazing on ferritic steels and vanadium alloys are explained. Feasibility of these techniques for the manufacture of the blanket is successfully demonstrated. The latest findings on the effect of neutron damage in tungsten on T retention and on the change in mechanical and electrical properties are described. Retention characteristics for neutron-damaged W were different compared to those for ion-damaged W. Upon neutron irradiation, tungsten alloys containing transmutation elements of W (Re and Os) show changes in properties that are different compared with those shown by pure W. The effects of mixed plasma exposure (D/He/C) are described. Both D/He and D/C mixed ion irradiations significantly affect ion-driven permeation in W. He bubble dynamics play a key role in nano-structure formation on the W surface. © 2011 The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences.

    Stainless steel (SUS) is used as the structure material in nuclear fusion devices. Heating and O 2 plasma discharge are considered for the removal of tritium. Oxide layer growth is anticipated on heating SUS at a high temperature in low-pressure residual O 2 gas. When O 2 plasma discharge is performed, oxygen plasma reaches the structure material and iron oxides such as Fe 2O 3 are formed. Thus, a knowledge of the retention behavior of hydrogen isotopes or deuterium (D) in the oxide layers is important in designing the devices. We investigated D retention in Fe 2O 3 films and the influence of Fe 2O 3 crystal structure on D retention and found that D retention in γ-Fe 2O 3 (cubic-maghemite) is larger than that in α-Fe 2O 3 (hexagonal-hematite). The results for Fe 2O 3 are compared with those for SUS and Fe. © 2011 The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences.

    Divertor simulation study has been started as a new research plan, by making best use of a large linear plasma device. The experiment of generating the plasma flow with high heat and particle flux was successfully performed at an end-mirror exit of the GAMMA 10 tandem mirror. In typical hot-ion-mode plasmas, the heat-flux density of 0.6 MW/m2 and the particle-flux density of 1022 particles/s m2 were simultaneously achieved in the case of only ICRF heating and superimposing the 300 kW ECH pulse attained the peak value of the net heat-flux up to 8 MW/m2 on axis. The above experimental results and the simulation analysis of ICRF heating using the Fokker-Planck code give a clear prospect of generating the required performance for divertor studies by building up the plasma heating systems to the end-mirror cell. Detailed behavior of the plasma flow and the future research plan are also described. © 2010 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

    In order to validate some current decay models during the current quench, the plasma current decay time was studied using the experimental plasma resistance and inductance in high poloidal beta, &beta;<sub>p</sub>, disruptions in JT-60U. The plasma resistance and inductance were evaluated from an equilibrium calculation code and the measurement value of a magnetic sensor, the electron temperature evaluated by using ECE measurement and the electron density measured by FIR interferometer. In high &beta;<sub>p</sub> disruptions, it was found that the electron temperature at the plasma center just after current quench starts was approximately 1-4 keV under almost the same current decay time observed during the initial phase of current quench. This result indicates that the electron temperature itself plays no major role in the determination of the current decay time in the initial phase of current quench. Moreover, the current decay time predicted by a modified L/R model [Y. Shibata et al., Nucl. Fusion 50, 025015 (2010)], in which the time derivative of plasma inductance was considered, was in good agreement with the experimental current decay time, while the values obtained from the conventional L/R model were two orders of magnitude larger than the experimental results.

    We have studied implantation of low-energy deuterium ions into Fe 2O3 films and deuterium (D)-uptake in Fe2O 3 films, which were prepared by oxidation of Fe sheets in air at 400°C for 20 min. X-ray diffraction (XRD) shows that the films are mixture of hexagonal α-Fe2O3 (hematite) and cubic γ-Fe2O3 (maghemite). According to Rutherford backscattering spectroscopy (RBS) of 1.8 MeV H+, the composition is found to be crudely stoichiometric (Fe:O=2:3). The samples were subjected to D2+-plasma exposure using AC-glow discharge. The amount of D-uptake in Fe2O3 is evaluated to be ∼6×10 16cm2 for AC voltage of 1.5 kV in 0.4 Torr of D 2 gas for 15 min. The amount of D-uptake in Fe2O 3 appears to be larger by a factor of three than that in Fe. Comparisons of XRD patterns and RBS spectra before and after D2+-plasma exposure show no appreciable change of the crystalline structure, quality and composition. © 2010 American Institute of Physics.

    Oxy-combustion generates a high temperature field (above 3000 K), which is applied to next generation power plants and high temperature industrial technologies because of N<sub>2</sub> free processes. However, the combustion temperature is so high that the furnace wall may be fatally damaged. In addition, it is very difficult to control the heat flux and chemical species' concentrations because of rapid chemical reactions. We have developed a new method for controlling the flame by electromagnetic force on this field. In this paper, we experimentally investigated the power coupling between the premixed oxy-combustion with methane and radio frequency (RF) power through the induction coil. By optimizing the power coupling, we observed that the flame can absorb RF power up to 1.5 kW. Spectroscopic measurements also showed an increase in the emission intensity from OH radicals in the flame, indicating improved combustibility.

    By a classical molecular dynamics (CMD) simulation with a modified Brenner's reactive empirical bond-order (REBO) potential, we found that graphite with zigzag (1010) and armchair (1120) edge states is destroyed more easily than other structures, i.e., graphite with the (0001) surface, and diamond with the (100), (111), (120), and (110) surfaces. Experimental results indicated that graphite is eroded under hydrogen atom injection with E<sub>in</sub> = 0.3 eV, and that diamond is not eroded under the same conditions. Our simulation results are consistent with these experimental results. We also reveal the temperature and saturation dependence of the surface structure of carbon crystals.

    QUEST focuses on the steady state operation of the spherical tokamak by controlled PWI and electron Bernstein wave current drive. One of the main purposes of QUEST is an achievement of long duration discharge with MW-class injected power. As the result, QUEST should be operated in the challenging region on heat and particle handling. To do the particle handling, high temperature all metal wall up to 623 K and closed divertors are planned, which is to realize the steady-state operation under recycling ratio, R = 1. This is a dispensable check to DEMO, because wall pumping should be avoided as possible in the view of tritium retention. The QUEST project will be developed in increment step such as, I. low &beta; steady state operation in limiter configuration, II. low &beta; steady state operation in divertor configuration, III. relatively high &beta; steady state operation in closed divertor configuration. Phase I in the project corresponds to these two years, and final goal of phase I is to make full current drive plasma up to 20 kA. Closed divertor will be designed and tested in the Phase II. QUEST is running from Oct., 2008 and the first results are introduced.

    W is a candidate for plasma facing material and oxide layers are highly anticipated on W surface. We have studied deuterium (D) retention in tungsten oxide (WO3) films and thermal release of deuterium. WO3 films, prepared by oxidation of W metal sheet, were exposed to D2 plasma under AC glow discharge at the applied voltage V up to a few kV and DC discharge. D-retention in W has been studied for comparison. The amount of D retained in the WO3 films and W were analyzed by detecting α particles from the nuclear reaction, D(3He, α)p, using 0.7 MeV 3He+ ions. We find that D-uptake in WO3 film is much larger than in W. According to thermal desorption, release of D2 occurs at ∼180 and 450 °C. © 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

    We have investigated deuterium (D) uptake in TiO2 (rutile) films under exposure of low-energy D2+ ions and thermal release of D from TiO2 films. The amount of deuterium in the films was analysed by means of nuclear reaction analysis, D(3He, α)p. D-uptake under AC-glow discharge in D2 pressure of ∼90 Pa is compared with that under DC-discharge with well-defined energy of D 2+ ions in D2 pressure of ∼0.1 Pa. The results imply that the effective energy of D2+ ions in AC-glow discharge is much lower than the energy derived from the applied voltage. The results are also compared with those for Ti sheet exposed to low-energy D2+ ions. We find that D-release temperature from TiO2 is considerably lower than from Ti, though D-uptake in TiO2 is smaller than in Ti. © 2008 Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA.

    In JT-60U, the filament structure of Edge Localized Modes (ELMs) is measured at three poloidal locations, and their temporal evolution is investigated at the inner (high magnetic-field-side, HFS) SOL as well as outer (low magnetic-field-side, LFS) SOL. At the inner SOL, filament structure with 7-8 temporal multi-peaks in ion-saturation probe signals and other diagnostics is, for the first time, measured close to the sepatratrix. The delay of the first peak after the start of MHD activity is faster than the characteristic time of the parallel convection from the outer midplane, and the Mach numbers of the plasma parallel flow reach ion sonic levels. These results show that ELM filaments extend from the outer to the inner plasma edge, and that a part of the filaments are ejected into the inner SOL. The toroidal mode numbers (n) and poloidal width of the filaments (δz) are evaluated from the interval of the multi-peaks and duration of each peak, yielding n ∼ 18-44 and δz ∼ 2-6 cm on the HFS SOL, while n and δz are comparable on the LFS SOL. After the multi-peaks appear, flow reversal of the SOL plasma toward is observed over a wide region of the inner SOL. © 2008 IOP Publishing Ltd.

    Nanosecond laser ablation of tungsten (W) exposed to helium plasma is investigated using optical emission spectroscopy. Submicrometer-sized holes/bubbles are formed on the surface of W when it was exposed to the helium plasma at a sufficiently high temperature (1500-1600 K). The emissions from a virgin W (before the helium plasma irradiation) cannot be detected when the fluence is <1 J cm2; however, the threshold fluence for the detection of neutral W emission after it was exposed to the helium plasma is ∼0.2 J cm2. The physical mechanism of laser-induced bursting of holes/bubbles is proposed for achieving a significant reduction in ablation power threshold. © 2007 American Institute of Physics.

    The radial density profile of negative hydrogen ions in magnetized plasma is investigated in the divertor simulator MAP (Material and plasma)-II [S. Kado et al., J. Plasma Fusion Res. 71, 810 (2005)] by measurement and numerical simulation. The laser photodetachment method is used to evaluate the H - density by considering the influence of the magnetic field. The density of H- has a hollow profile and exhibits a peak in the peripheral region, though the electron density and temperature exhibit a peak at the center of the plasma column. The density profile of H- does not agree with the calculation result obtained from, the rate equation, in which the local production and extinction rates are balanced, under the present experimental condition. To understand the behavior of negative ions, their trajectories are calculated by numerically solving the equation of motion by considering the effect of collisions. The negative ion density profile calculated from the particle simulation agrees well with the measured negative ion density profile. It is shown that the cross-field H- transport due to the radial electric field with the assistance of the elastic collisions plays an important role in enhancing the negative ion density in the peripheral region. © 2007 American Institute of Physics.

    The alleviation effect of transient heat load on helium holes/bubbles has been demonstrated using ruby laser pulses for the transient heat source in the divertor simulator NAGDIS-II. It is shown that the holes and bubbles disappeared following the irradiation of the ruby laser pulses, while the surface roughness was significantly enhanced by the irradiation of the Nd:YAG laser pulses. Based on the numerically calculated temperature in the specimen, the physical mechanism causing this difference is discussed particularly in terms of pulse width (0.6 ms for ruby laser without a Q-switch and 5 ns for Nd:YAG laser with a Q-switch).

    Dependence of the damping rate of the oscillations of the dust particles levitating in the sheath on the plasma parameters is investigated both theoretically and experimentally. Significant deviations of the damping rate from the values predicted by the Epstein formula are found in the experiment. The delayed charging effect is applied for the theoretical explanation of the experimental results. Qualitative agreement between the theoretical and experimental data is obtained. © 2006 The American Physical Society.

    The edge plasma turbulence in the T-10 tokamak, the HYBTOK-II tokamak, the linear machine NAGDIS-II and the Large Helical Device have been studied. The fluctuations in the plasma density have been analysed in terms of the multifractal formalism revisited with wavelets. In most of the cases considered, the edge density fluctuations demonstrate multifractal statistics, i.e. the scaling behaviour of the absolute moments is described by a convex function with non-trivial self-similarity properties. The multifractality factor defined in the multiplicative cascade model is a relevant parameter for characterizing the edge plasma turbulence. The multiplicative cascade process has a 'coarse' time scale T ∼ 50-200 ms iterating towards finer scales. This time scale is referred to as an integral correlation scale. The self-similarity parameters have been observed to depend on the edge plasma condition. The correlation and transport properties have been analysed regarding the multifractality parameter. The diffusion transport coefficient in an edge plasma is not a trivial function of multifractality parameters. © 2006 IAEA, Vienna.

    The effects of using an array of tungsten pin electrodes on the ignition dynamics of radio frequency (rf) discharges generated by inductively coupled plasma (ICP) technique at atmospheric pressure are investigated experimentally. The experimental observations reveal that the array of tungsten pin electrodes successfully enhance the initial discharges maintained by the strong electrostatic field with stable and fast ignition, which enables us to sustain efficient rf induction plasmas at atmospheric pressure range.

    The validity of electron temperature measurement using the Boltzmann plot method was investigated in a radio frequency (rf) inductive discharge in the atmospheric pressure range. Since the Boltzmann plot method requires local thermal equilibrium (LTE), the parameter regions of electron temperature and electron density, in which the Boltzmann plot method is applicable, were analyzed in terms of a comparison of the spontaneous emission and collisional excitation to the excited states. It is observed that in our rf-inductive plasma near the atmospheric pressure range the Boltzmann plot method does not provide an exact measurement of electron temperature because of relatively low electron density, which does not satisfy the calculation criteria. An alternative method employing a combination of the Stark broadening measurement and the Saha-Boltzmann equation was demonstrated to more accurately determine the plasma parameters (electron temperature and electron density).

    In recent years, the immittance conversion topology [1] has become attractive as a novel power conversion strategy because of its features that a constant voltage source is converted to a constant current source and vice versa. However, the design of an ideal immittance circuit in the high-power (∼kW) and high-frequency (∼MHz) range is practically very important, especially when apply to a dynamic and non-linear load such as induction plasma. In this article, the design and development of an ideal T-LCL immittance circuit is reported. The performance of the designed immittance circuit is analysed by using a time-varying inductive plasma load.

    We have developed a new toroidal divertor plasma simulator, NAGDIS-T (NAGoya DIvertor plasma Simulator with Toroidal magnetic configuration). Plasma is generated by RF Joule discharge. In order to obtain high density plasmas relevant to divertor plasmas in fusion devices, we investigate the optimum condition of RF Joule discharge by varying gas pressure and driving frequency. The experimental result shows that the optimum condition strongly depends on these parameters. Copyright © (2005) by the European Physical Society (EPS).

    Low-energy and high-flux plasma exposures on tungsten surfaces result in blister/hole formation. Subsequent He plasma exposure at 2,000 K on the blister-rich surface forms a hole structure on the surface, including the blister surface, and some blisters collapse due to recrystallization and bubble formation on the blister skin. Grain ejections were observed after deuterium plasma exposure at 550 K on a W surface on which a hole structure had formed due to He pre-exposure at 1,600 K.

    A radio frequency (rf) inductive discharge in atmospheric pressure range requires high voltage in the initial startup phase and high power during the steady state sustainment phase. It is, therefore, necessary to inject high rf power into the plasma ensuring the maximum use of the power source, especially where the rf power is limited. In order to inject the maximum possible rf power into the plasma with a moderate rf power source of few kilowatts range, we employ the immittance conversion topology by converting a constant voltage source into a constant current source to generate efficient rf discharge by inductively coupled plasma (ICP) technique at a gas pressure with up to one atmosphere in argon. A novel T-LCL immittance circuit is designed for constant-current high-power operation, which is practically very important in the high-frequency range, to provide high effective rf power to the plasma. The immittance conversion system combines the static induction transistor (SIT)-based radio frequency (rf) high-power inverter circuit and the immittance conversion elements including the rf induction coil. The basic properties of the immittance circuit are studied by numerical analysis and verified the results by experimental measurements with the inductive plasma as a load at a relatively high rf power of about 4 kW. The performances of the immittance circuit are also evaluated and compared with that of the conventional series resonance circuit in high-pressure induction plasma generation. The experimental results reveal that the immittance conversion circuit confirms injecting higher effective rf power into the plasma as much as three times than that of the series resonance circuit under the same operating conditions and same dc supply voltage to the inverter, thereby enhancing the plasma heating efficiency to generate efficient rf inductive discharges.

    In the magnetic fusion community much attention has recently been directed to particle control in the existing confinement experiments, as it is recognized that the core plasma performance can directly be affected by the edge conditions. However, it is still true that there is no clear strategy to cope with the needs for steady-state reactor operation. That is that, due to the saturation nature, wall conditioning such as boronization is not applicable for fuel and impurity particles control in steady-state devices, requiring a start from enabling concepts development. As a possible solution, the concept of moving-surface plasma-facing components (MS-PFCs) was proposed in our previous work and in the present work proof-of-principle experiments have been conducted. In this concept, the plasma-facing surface is mechanically circulated out-of-pile for regeneration of particle capturing capabilities by coating getter films on it. A prototypical MS-PFC test unit has been constructed for these proof-of-principle experiments, employing a rotating copper drum as the moving surface and titanium as the getter material. It has been indicated that, from Hα light intensity data taken in front of the rotating target, relative to no getter cases, approximately 6% reduced hydrogen recycling has been achieved at steady state. In support of these data, a first-order particle balance model predicts a 7% reduction in hydrogen recycling. © 2003 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

    The first reliable measurement of ion temperature in the divertor plasma of the Large Helical Device has been done by using an ion sensitive probe. The satisfactory current-voltage characteristics of the ion collector for evaluating the ion temperature were obtained at the outer part of the divertor leg. Furthermore, simultaneous ion and electron temperature measurements were successfully done in this part. The results show that the ion temperature is higher than the electron temperature in the part. There is a possibility that the profiles of the evaluated ion temperature which shows relatively higher than the electron temperature at the outside of divertor leg are qualitatively explained by particle's orbits around the edge and divertor region. © 2003 Elsevier Science B.V.

    The experimental evaluation of space charge limited emission current from tungsten surface in high density helium plasma was done. It was found that the space charge limited current from the tungsten target plate saturated with an increase in sheath voltage. The space charge effect was predicted on the basis of boundary conditions of zero electric field on the material surface.

    Recombination in a helium and helium-hydrogen plasma was experimentally investigated in the linear divertor simulator NAGDIS-II. To identify the physical mechanisms, electron-ion recombination (EIR) and molecular assisted recombination (MAR), the plasma parameters in the recombining region have been measured. We used spectroscopic techniques on the basis of continuum emission and line emission from highly excited levels due to EIR and Langmuir probes. The dependence of the plasma parameters on the neutral pressure in a pure helium plasma and in a helium-hydrogen mixture shows clearly that recombination is caused by different processes in the two cases. In a pure helium plasma a roll-over and a following decrease of the electron density as well as a monotonic decrease of the electron temperature down to 0.1 eV were observed when increasing the helium pressure. Here EIR is the recombination mechanism. Conversely, when hydrogen is added to the helium plasma, the electron density decreases monotonically while the central electron temperature remains above 1 eV. This particular behaviour in the helium-hydrogen plasma can only be explained by the dominant action of MAR.

    A comprehensive investigation has been performed of the static and dynamic behaviour of detached recombining plasmas in the linear divertor plasma simulator NAGDIS-II. For stationary plasma detachment, the transition from electron ion recombination (EIR) to molecular activated recombination (MAR) has been observed by injecting hydrogen gas into high density helium plasmas. The particle loss rate due to MAR is found to be comparable to that of EIR. Experiments have also been performed by the injection of a plasma heat pulse produced by RF heating into the detached helium plasma to demonstrate the dynamic behaviour of volumetric plasma recombination. Negative spikes in the Balmer series line emission were observed and found to be similar to the so called negative ELM observed in tokamak divertors. Observed Balmer spectra were analysed in detail using the collisional-radiative model. A rapid increase of the ion flux to the target plate was observed associated with the re-ionization of the highly excited atoms generated by EIR.

    Measurements of ion and electron temperatures have been performed in detaching helium -hydrogen plasmas in a linear divertor simulator experiment using spectroscopy, a Langmuir probe, and an omegatron mass spectrometer. Detachment in these plasmas is characterized by a significant (≈20×) reduction in the central plasma flux at the target plate as the target region neutral pressure is increased from 2 to 12 mTorr. The data indicate that partially detached gas-target plasmas consist of a hot (Te≈5 eV) core region along the axis of the plasma column, surrounded by a cold (Te ≈0.1 eV) halo region of recombining plasma. At Te = 5 eV, plasma recombination is negligible compared with ionization; these experiments therefore provide evidence that detachment is primarily caused by radial transport and by a gradual drop in the ionization source as the temperature of the core region drops below 5 eV. © 2001 American Institute of Physics.

    Detailed spectroscopic measurements have been carried out in the linear divertor plasma simulator, NAGDIS-II in order to acquire the accurate evaluation of the electron temperature, which leads to a deeper understanding of the characteristics of detached recombining plasmas. Electron temperature in the detached recombining plasmas was evaluated by two different spectroscopic methods, using continuum emission and a series of line emission from highly excited levels, giving different electron temperatures. The reasons are discussed based on the effects of energetic electrons.

    In order to find the causes of the strong anomaly of current-voltage characteristics of Langmuir probe observed in detached recombining plasmas in a linear divertor plasma simulator, NAGDIS-II, we have investigated plasma resistance along a magnetic field and potential fluctuations in the detached recombining plasmas. Simple calculation on the ratio between the plasma length, at which plasma resistance and resistance of ion sheath formed around a probe tip become equal, and an electron collection length indicates that the evaluation of electron temperature Te becomes inaccurate at Te of less than 0.6 eV when plasma density and neutral pressure are 1.0 × 1018 m-3 and 10 mtorr, respectively. The potential fluctuation in detached recombining plasmas was found to be so large compared to Te/e, which can also modify the probe characteristics.
