Chemically assisted physical sputtering of Tungsten: Identification via the 6Π→6Σ+ transition of WD in TEXTOR and ASDEX Upgrade plasmas
Tungsten (W) is a preferred plasma-facing material for areas of high particle and power impact in present day and future fusion devices. The lifetime of W plasma-facing components (PFCs) under steady-state conditions is limited by erosion processes induced by energetic impinging particles such as im...
