Mechanical and microstructural analysis of tungsten exposed in JET deuterium plasmas

A tungsten Langmuir probe exposed in the JET divertor during the ITER-like wall campaigns (ILW) has been studied to evaluate changes in mechanical properties and microstructure. The tip of the probe that was exposed to plasma was cross-sectioned and polished for post mortem analysis. Analysis involv...
