Abstract

Abstract The high melting point, low atomic number, and resistance to thermal fatigue and erosion are desirable attributes of TiC coatings for fusion reactor containment vessels and components. However, such coatings are subjected to hydrogen ion bombardment from circulating plasma. This can result in the formation and adsorption of various molecular complexes. Conventional characterization techniques involving low energy electron beams cause desorption of these complexes. The unenhanced surface Raman scattering technique was used to investigate the possibility of the formation of C-H and Ti-H complexes on the plasma-sprayed TiC surface.
