Pisces-RF: A helicon-plasma based linear-device for the study of fusion relevant plasma-materials-interactions

The helicon-plasma based-linear plasma-materials-interaction device, Pisces-RF is introduced. Steady-state plasma parameters in the target region are electron density up to ∼1019 m−3, electron temperature up to ∼10 eV, and ion flux up to ∼1023 m−2s−1 in D2 and He, with an associated maximum peak tar...

Zusammenfassung:The helicon-plasma based-linear plasma-materials-interaction device, Pisces-RF is introduced. Steady-state plasma parameters in the target region are electron density up to ∼1019 m−3, electron temperature up to ∼10 eV, and ion flux up to ∼1023 m−2s−1 in D2 and He, with an associated maximum peak target heat flux of ∼1 MWm−2 and a few MWm−2 when accelerating ions with an electrical bias. Attached and detached target plasma regimes with both gaseous species can be achieved, as characterized by high and low Te (
