Motivation

Charge transfer, neutralization and

formation of ions Plasma-wall interaction

Divertor physics

Negative ion source

ITER (International Thermonuclear

Experimental Reactor) Heat plasma~150 million °C

Maintain kinetic energy

Why negative ions source?

ITER 1 MeV H- ->H°

How could make an efficient negative ion source?

Caesiated surface

Too expensive for all the reactor

Production of H- on diamond

Diamond CVD (chemical vapor deposition), naturelly hydrogenated

- gap de 5.5 eV

- very deep valence band

- negative electron affinity (-1 eV), depending on H surface coverage

ProjectileE=1 keV

Fraction of H-

(%)

H+ 2.5 ± 0.5

H° 3.0 ± 0.8

H2+ 1.6 ± 0.5

Conclusion : diamond CVD

- resonant neutralization of H+

- formation of H- by capturing electron from moved affinity level

- H- survival thanks to the forbidden band

Resultats of H2+ agree well with the

reference(Wurz P. , Schletti R. and Aellig M.R., Surf. Sci 373, 56, 1997)

at the fixed incidence ( 1.5 °), the rate of H- increase with total

energyBoth V⊥ and V// are incresed

Conclusion

The first results from diamond are disappointing

Uncertainty level of hydrogenation (->temperature

variations)

The trend of H- fraction for graphite is quite different

Results on electron emission to investigate the role

band gap

Perspective

Extend our work on graphite and possibly on hydrogenated diamond

Exploit energy loss data in coincidence with electron emissionGo to larger incidence anglesInvestigate graphite with H and defects

Investigate other carbon based materials (C60…)
