摘要
The rate of removal of deuterium from DIII-D codeposits has been directly compared for thermo-oxidations using NO2 and O-2. At 286 and 350 degrees C and pressures of 2 and 20 kPa, NO2 is significantly more effective than O-2 in removing D from the codeposits. With both NO2 and O-2, only weak pressure dependence is seen for D removal. The gaseous products formed during oxidation have also been studied. Low levels of D-containing gaseous compounds have been detected in comparison to the amount of D removed as measured by post-oxidation laser thermal desorption spectroscopy. Post-oxidation XPS surface analysis showed increased boron concentration, but no increase in the nitrogen content of the codeposits. (C) 2013 Elsevier B. V. All rights reserved.
