Influence of thin surface oxide films on hydrogen isotope release from ion-irradiated tungsten

K. Kremer, M. Brucker, W. Jacob, T. Schwarz-Selinger • Nuclear Materials and Energy (2022)

We studied the influence of thin, electro-chemically grown tungsten (W) surface oxide films on hydrogen isotope release from W. As deuterium (D) reservoir underneath the oxide, we used a defect-rich, ion-irradiated W layer that was filled w...
