Hydrogen in tungsten: Absorption, diffusion, vacancy trapping, and decohesion

TL;DR: In this article, the authors report results from periodic density-functional theory calculations for three crucial aspects of this interaction: surface-to-subsurface diffusion of H into W, trapping of H at vacancies, and Henhanced decohesion, with a view to assess the likely extent of hydrogen isotope incorporation into tungsten reactor walls.

Investigating behaviours of hydrogen in a tungsten grain boundary by first principles: from dissolution and diffusion to a trapping mechanism

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the dissolution, segregation and diffusion of hydrogen in a tungsten grain boundary (GB) using a first-principles method in order to understand the GB trapping mechanism of H.

4.17 – Tungsten as a Plasma-Facing Material

TL;DR: The characterization and understanding of the material's behavior under high transient thermal loads, neutron irradiation-induced material degradation and transmutation, hydrogen and helium attack at the plasma-facing surface, and thermal fatigue under steady state heat fluxes as part of a tungsten component are studied in this paper.

Hydrogen diffusion and vacancies formation in tungsten: Density Functional Theory calculations and statistical models

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the interaction of hydrogen with tungsten by means of the density functional theory (DFT) and statistical methods based on the transition-state theory and thermodynamics, and concluded that the discrepancy existing between the experimental diffusion coefficient measured by Frauenfelder (1969) and the one calculated by DFT would be reconciled provided one uses two different diffusion regimes that would depend on temperature and vacancies concentration.

Recent advances on hydrogen retention in ITER's plasma-facing materials: Beryllium, carbon and tungsten

TL;DR: The results of the Coordinated Research Project (CRP) on the overall topic of tritium inventory in fusion reactors during the period 2001-2006 are summarized in this paper together with recommendations for ITER as discussed by the authors.

Interstitial Atomic Diffusion Coefficients

TL;DR: In this paper, an attempt is made to interpret the temperature independent factor of the previously determined diffusion coefficients of interstitial solute atoms in metals, and the associated entropy factors are consistent with the theoretical range.

Solution and Diffusion of Hydrogen in Tungsten

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used mass spectroscopic and ultrahigh vacuum techniques to investigate the solubility and diffusion of hydrogen in tungsten with high temperatures between 1100 and 2400 K. The authors derived the diffusion constants, D = 4.1×10−3×exp (−9000/RT) cm2/sec.

Deuterium retention in tungsten in dependence of the surface conditions

TL;DR: In this paper, a review of hydrogen isotope retention and migration in tungsten (W) is presented, where a large scatter of the deuterium (D) retention database is used to clarify the mechanism of hydrogen inventory in W. Several points are reviewed: (i) inventory in pure W, (ii) inventory of W pre-implanted by carbon ions, and (iii) inventory inventory in Tungsten oxide.

Tritium retention in tungsten exposed to intense fluxes of 100 eV tritons

TL;DR: The Tritium Plasma Experiment Experiment (TPE) has been used to examine the retention of tritium in tungsten exposed to very high fluxes of 100 eV tritons as mentioned in this paper.
