  2. Introduction HT-7 & EAST Specialists Working Groups on Diagnostics First Mirrors (FM) also as fiveHigh Priority Topics in SWG

  3. HT-7 & EAST ASIPP All diagnostics in ITER which uses radiation in the ultraviolet, visible and infrared wavelength range will have to view the plasma via a mirror. These first mirrors must survive in an extremely hostile environment and maintain an acceptable optical performance.

  4. HT-7 & EAST ASIPP First mirror be exposed to neutron ,  particle, CXA, -ray, -ray…. The wavelength range of interest is from 5 nm in vacuum UV region up to 100 mm in the far infrared range. The requirement is to maintain a mean surface roughness which does not exceed 0.1 of the operating wavelength. Mirrors used for diagnostics in present magnetic confinement experiments would not maintain the required performance for more than a few tens of seconds under these conditions. UV and X-ray radiation ~up to 500 kW/m2, surface heating; Neutron flux up to 8 W/cm3 , mainly volumetric modifications of the material; Charge exchangeatoms - up to 23*1019 particles/(m2*s) with energies0.1-several keV; Deposition of material eroded from the divertor and first wall. Particle flux: Neutron and CXA is the most important Resistance to CXA Consideration Reflectivity

  5. CXA Different sputtering yield in different orientation Appearance of Step structure (microrelief) Degradation of Reflectivity Sputtering by CXA HT-7 & EAST Neutron irradiation does not result in the direct degradation of reflectivity, but accelerate the CXA sputtering. Al mirror has the lowest resistance, lost a large portion of reflectivity ~0.2m, fully degraded h>0.4m. Cu lost 70%, ~0.8 m. The rate of R(h) dependence for W and Ta (after maximum) mirrors looks rather similar to R(h) dependence for the later stage of sputtering of a Cu mirror. Rh film on Cu substrare maintained its initial R after ~7 m sputtered. No any noticeable degradation of reflectance ~5(for mono W) and ~7(Mo)

  6. HT-7 & EAST Ag,Au,Cu higher reflectivity but lower resistance to sputtering. W,Mo,SS lower reflectivity but higher resistance to sputtering. ASIPP Mirrors must be fabricated either of monocrystalline metal (Mo or W), or as a metal film on metal substrate (Rh is probably the best candidate) with the film thickness depending on the mirror location relatively to the core plasma, i.e., depending on the degree of attenuation of the CXA flux to the mirror surface.

  7. HT-7 & EAST ASIPP • Materials selection of FM • Development of the technology of mirror preparation (bulk mirrors • and metal film on metal substrate mirrors) • Simulation experiments the long-term sputtering tests are being conducted for mirrors of different metals with different structure: • Polycrystalline (Be, Al, SS, Cu, Mo, Ta, W); • Monocrystalline (SS, Mo, W) ; • Metal film on metal substrate (Be/Cu, Cu/Cu, Rh/Cu, Rh/SS, Mo/SS, Mo/Mo). The energy distribution of ions of deuterium plasma is wide (0.1-1.5 keV)

  8. HT-7 & EAST ASIPP Reflectance of mirror samples before (dotted) and after (solid) exposure to one year of Tore Supra plasma (B. Schunke, V. Voitsenya)

  9. HT-7 & EAST ASIPP SEM photo of polycrystalline Cu mirror after layer of 2.5  m was eroded by ions of deuterium plasma Scanning electron micrographs of the surfaces of W(a,b) and Ta(c,d) mirrors after sputtering layers with thickness: (a)870nm;(b)2710nm;(c)960nm;(d)2970nm.

  10. HT-7 & EAST ASIPP An extensive R&D program is on going in which candidate mirror materials are subject toenergetic particle bombardment with ion sourcesandplasma simulators, and toenvironmental tests intokamaks. The degradation of the performance of the mirrors is measured. Molybdenum Single crystal Polycrystal Degradation of reflectivity of candidate first mirrors materials under energetic ion bombardment. After V Voitsenya, et al, RSI, 2001

  11. Deposition of contaminants HT-7 & EAST The scheme of deposit appearing on the diagnostic window due to physical sputtering of the surface materials of the wall and the possible way to decrease the rate of deposit growing. 1 - periphery plasma, 2 - flux of CX atoms, 3 – diagnostic duct, 4 - sputtered atoms of a duct material, 5 – diagnostic window, 6 - deposit on the window surface, 7 – sputtered atoms of a deposit material, 8 - diaphragms made of material with low sputtering yield (e.g., Ta, W).

  15. HT-7 & EAST ASIPP Direct comparative test of single crystal and polycrystalline mirrors under erosion conditions

  16. HT-7 & EAST ASIPP Investigations of diagnostic mirrors in TEXTOR Outlook for 2005 ► Mirrors in the erosion conditions ● Direct comparative test of candidate mirrors. ● Impact of surface finishing on the optical performance of single crystal mirrors in the erosion conditions (collaboration with Kurchatov institute, Russia). ► Mirrors in the deposition conditions ● Modeling of plasma-gas interaction in the periscope mirror system with UEDGE code (collaboration with LLNL, USA). ● Modeling of impurity transport and deposition in the periscope mirror system with ERO code. ● Experiment on deposition mitigation in the Periscope-Upgrade mirror system.

  17. HT-7 & EAST ASIPP Exposition of SS mirror samples in Large Helical Device (LHD) during 3rd experimental campaign (A.Sagara)

  18. HT-7 & EAST ASIPP Retractable heatable mirror system • Single crystal and polycrystalline molybdenum mirrors were exposed; • Exposure in the Private Flux Region (PFR); • Series of identical ELMy H-Mode discharges; • Partially detached plasma in the divertor; • 1st exposure: mirrors at room temperature; • 2nd exposure: mirrors at 1400C→800C.

  19. HT-7 & EAST ASIPP Preparation of the First Mirror Test in JET: locations of cassettes with mirror samples.

  20. HT-7 & EAST ASIPP Research on mirror Cleaning This could be laser cleaning (this possibility is under investigation in PPPL and in Kurchatov Institute). Flashlamp cleaning (Counsell UKAEA) - a Xe flashlamp close to the mirror but not blocking its view (the first pulse may be needed to clean the flashlamp itself!). Local discharge cleaning. Cleaning rate magnitudes around 1nm/min are relevant to what is known about chemical erosion in ECR plasmas. The rate of cleaning increases when the magnetic flux crosses the polluted area at the angle of incidence exceeding 30Deg. There is strong incentive to address the other types of discharge which show a promise as cleaning tool. Sizable efforts were made to improve the cleaning ability of low temperature plasmas . Mirror in-situ cleaning shows a promise as a potential technique for ITER

  21. HT-7 & EAST 2 Coated in magnetron plasma 2 Coated in the T-10 discharges 1 original,3 after the removal of coating ASIPP Deposition of contamination onto first mirror is another important degradation of reflectance. deposits not only decrease the reflectance of mirrors, but also distort the spectrum of reflected radiation because of interference. However the role of deposition of contaminants is still not clear for the FMs of the core plasma.

  22. HT-7 & EAST ASIPP For the FMs of laser diagnostics , high repetition frequency of laser shots the thin surface layer of mirror is subjected to short-term thermal impacts with a resulting effect very much similar to a fatigue deformation. Laser tests were performed on first mirror prototypes to find the single shot damage threshold and multipulse laser damage threshold. Diffusion scattering coefficients via number of laser shots for sc Mo mirror under different laser fluence-0.78, 0.84, 1.25 J/cm2

Electron microscope photo of single crystal Mo mirror surface after influence of multiple laser irradiation. Magnification: (a)100,(b)1000 times

  24. HT-7 & EAST ASIPP • First Mirror Programme • Selection and use of materials that are resistant to erosion • due to sputtering. • Measurement on existing tokamaks under ITER like edge • conditions. • Development of models of the process. • Development of mitigating methods (baffles, shutters etc) • Development of cleaning techniques • All are being pursued but not aggressively enough. Only the • selection and use of resistant materials has really been covered adequately so far. The development of models is especially weak.

  25. HT-7 & EAST ASIPP Actual situation: Multiple effects occurring simultaneously Time averaged measurements Poorly known edge plasma conditions Models at a very early stage of development Many experiments are ‘interpreted’ without the use of models.

  26. What can we do? HT-7 & EAST Research proposals in HT-7 experiment The fabrication of high quality mirrors: Material selection and the fabrication process.(polishing and cleaning) Thick films on metallic substrate. (Rh films or) Pre-characterization of mirrors should be made: Optical properties; Elemental composition of the mirror surface; Surface topography; Surface roughness curvature were investigated.

  27. HT-7 & EAST ASIPP Experiment: Erosion-deposition rate depend on position and material of mirrors, plasma parameters, VV conditioning modes and using mitigation measures. So the “history” of reflectivity deterioration of each mirror will be unique. 1. Mirrors were exposed for series of identical shots at the same plasma conditions in the SOL of HT-7. 2. Mirrors on sample rack of the removable midplane manipulator. Key: position and orientation. The position erosion equal to deposition. Study of composition and morphology of the deposits. Estimation of deposition rates on the mirrors. Investigation of mirror reflectivity degradation

  28. HT-7 & EAST ASIPP Parameter Exposure on test limiter inclined at 200 with respect to totoidal direction. Averaged density; The number of shots, duration of exposure; average temperature of the leading edge. The temperature excursions up to. Numerical modeling.(ERO code , uedge code , EIRENE, BBQ )

  29. HT-7 & EAST ASIPP • Polarimetry: characterization of retro-reflector exposed to plasma. • Pre and post exposure mirror analyses • Surface topography(roughness,flatness, profilometry-erosion) • Surface analysis (EDS,XPS,SIMS,SEM), deposition measurements • Deposition layer thickness measurements. • Optical measurements( ellipsometry, reflectivity UV->FIR). • Analysis methods • Contaminants analysis:ERDA (Elactic Recoil Detection Analyses), RBS (Rutherford Back Scattering), SIMS, SEM, Profilometer, X-ray diffraction, film annealing. • The relative reflectance was measured by means of a specular reflectance accessory of the Lambda 35 spectrophotometer.

  30. Facility Experiment Aim of experiment Description Results Wavelength range Implications for future studies HT-7 & EAST HT-7 Planned Comparative test of PC molybdenum, PC Tungsten and fine grain Tungsten and stainless steel mirrors under erosion-dominated (r=28.5-30cm) conditions in the SOL of HT-7. Contact persons Junling Chen jlch@ipp.ac.cn To make the clear the correlation between environment conditions and behavior of optical properties of in-vessel mirrors of different materials. Mirror samples will be exposed on the midplane manipulator and exposed during the same discharges. SS Mirror installed at the inner wall, a little over the central plane of the device, ~5cm from the plasma and without any protection. Exposure time next whole experimental campaign. An extensive analysis of exposed mirrors and modeling of mirror exposures is foreseen. Detailed surface analyses by different techniques; 2-D profilometry; reflectivity: 250-2500 nm, Polarization: 300-20.000nm Competitive concept with Rh film mirrors should be addressed Presently under consideration for next experimental campaign ASIPP
