abstract = {Structural damage due to high flux particle irradiation can
result in significant changes to the thermal strength of the
plasma facing component surface (PFC) during off-normal
events in a tokamak. Low-energy He+ ion irradiation of
tungsten (W), which is currently the leading candidate
material for future PFCs, can result in the development of a
fiber form nanostructure, known as “fuzz”. In the
current study, mirror-finished W foils were exposed to 100
eV He+ ion irradiation at a fluence of 2.6 × 1024 ions
m−2 and a temperature of 1200 K. Then, samples were
exposed to two different types of pulsed heat loading meant
to replicate type-I edge-localized mode (ELM) heating at
varying energy densities and base temperatures. Millisecond
(ms) laser exposure done at 1200 K revealed a reduction in
fuzz density with increasing energy density due to the
conglomeration and local melting of W fibers. At higher
energy densities (∼ 1.5 MJ m−2), RT exposures resulted
in surface cracking, while 1200 K exposures resulted in
surface roughening, demonstrating the role of base
temperature on the crack formation in W. Electron beam
heating presented similar trends in surface morphology
evolution; a higher penetration depth led to reduced melt
motion and plasticity. In situ mass loss measurements
obtained via a quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) found an
exponential increase in particle emission for RT exposures,
while the prevalence of melting from 1200 K exposures
yielded no observable trend.},
