Comparative measurement of plasma potential with tube probe and Langmuir probe

AIP Advances, 2018
Plasma potential measurements using the conventional Langmuir probe may cause an error due to the space charge effect. To solve the problem, a tube probe is proposed in this study which can minimize the space charge effect by collecting electrons with an

Reduction of Oxide Inclusions During the High‐Frequency Welding of Steel via a Nonthermal Ar/H2 Plasma Jet

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
High‐frequency (HF) welding of steel is limited by oxide inclusions that degrade weld quality. This study demonstrates, for the first time, the integration of a nonthermal Ar/H2 dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) plasma jet into HF welding. Local plasma treatment provides effective shielding and in‐situ oxide reduction, resulting in markedly fewer and ...

Electrical Conductivities of Conductors, Semiconductors, and Their Mixtures at Elevated Temperatures

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This article presents a comprehensive review of temperature‐dependent electrical conductivity data for multiple material classes at elevated temperatures, highlighting a persistent conductivity gap between metals and semiconductors in the range of 102$\left(10\right)^{2}$– 107$\left(10\right)^{7}$ S/m. Metal–ceramic irregular metamaterials are proposed

Thermomechanical Fatigue and Creep–Fatigue Interaction of Inconel 718 Additively Manufactured by Laser Beam Powder Bed Fusion

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Thermomechanical fatigue tests of laser beam powder bed fusion (PBF‐LB) Inconel 718 show that the additively manufactured material reaches almost the lifetimes of conventionally‐rolled material under no‐dwell conditions. Introducing dwell times at the maximum temperature markedly reduces the lifetimes due to pronounced grain boundary sliding associated

Helium retention feature in the boron deposited layer on tungsten substrate by laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy and machine learning approach

Nuclear Materials and Energy
ITER is designed for a burning plasma operation in which Tungsten (W) tiles are used as the first wall and diverter materials. Studying He dynamics in B-coated W wall is essential to understanding the effect of boronized plasma-facing components in ...

Secondary electron effect on sustaining capacitively coupled discharges: A hybrid modeling investigation of the ionization rate

AIP Advances, 2019
A one-dimensional fluid/Monte Carlo hybrid model was used to quantitatively study the secondary electron effect on sustaining the discharge by examining the ionization induced by bulk electrons and secondary electrons under different external discharge ...

Effect of Laser Deoxidation on Adhesive‐Bonded Aluminum in an Oxygen‐Free Atmosphere

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This study investigates laser ablation of aluminum under oxygen‐free conditions. The goal is to produce oxide‐free substrates that enable improved adhesive bonding with epoxy. Optimized laser parameters (90% overlap, 300 µJ) combined with oxide‐free substrates result in the highest tensile strength of the adhesive bond.

The role of divertor pumping combined with full drifts in particle exhaust and divertor plasma

Nuclear Fusion
The effect of drifts combined with pumping on particle exhaust is assessed using the SOLPS-ITER code package, considering full drifts. Both drift and pumping speed S can affect particle exhaust.

Al–Cu Composite Casting of Laser‐Deoxidized Copper: Bonding, Interfacial Chemistry, and Thermal Conductivity

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This study investigates laser‐based oxide removal of Cu inserts in oxygen‐free conditions and examines long‐term oxidation kinetics and surface chemistry under different atmospheres via X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy. Al–Cu compound casting with differently oxidized surfaces is performed, and intermetallic phase formation, morphology, and thermal ...

Investigation of Oxygen‐Free Wetting Behavior of Aluminum on Copper via Molecular Dynamics Simulations and Experiments

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
The wettability of aluminum droplets (Al) on different copper substrates (Cu), where liquid Al spreads on solid Cu surfaces to form a liquid–solid interface, is studied numerically and experimentally. The experimental and numerical results show good agreement in the fast‐spreading regime.
