Abstract
Deuterium retention in different tungsten (W) grades was investigated for various incident ion energies ranging from 3 to 200 eV per deuterium atom and fluences ranging from 1×1023 m−2 to 2×1025 m−2. Irradiation temperatures were 320 and 500 K. The retained amount was determined by ion beam analysis and thermal desorption spectroscopy. For irradiation at 320 K, deuterium retention in plasma-sprayed tungsten (PSW) is higher compared to polycrystalline W for all investigated energies. For irradiation at 500 K, the deuterium retention for polycrystalline W increases strongly with fluence in contrast to PSW. The highest deuterium inventory was found for ITER grade W irradiated with 200 eV per deuterium at 500 K.
