الوصف: | Steady-state deuterium plasma exposures were performed on ultra-high temperature ceramics titanium diboride (TiB _2 ) and zirconium diboride (ZrB _2 ) using the PISCES-RF linear plasma device (LPD) as early screening for first wall, plasma-facing applications. Deuterium plasma exposures were performed using 40 eV ion energies at 240, 525, and 800 °C sample temperatures and 90 eV ion energies at 240 °C sample temperatures to analyze TiB _2 and ZrB _2 surface morphology and chemistry evolution behavior. Post-plasma exposure chemistry characterization of the near surface ( $ \lt $ 50 nm) region of the samples all show transition metal enrichment, indicating boron preferential erosion. Transition metal to boron fractions vary with plasma exposure temperature under the 40 eV ion energy; metal enrichment is maximized at 800 °C and then minimized at 525 °C. SEM micrographs of all plasma exposed sample surfaces show no significant or noticeable plasma induced damage from cracking or blistering. |
