Deciphering surface behavior and deuterium retention in tin-lithium-coated fuzzy tungsten substrates

Tungsten will be used as plasma-facing material in the divertor in ITER, but it undergoes detrimental surface-subsurface morphological changes under irradiation. One type of tungsten that may mitigate such morphologies is porous tungsten due to higher defect sink areal density. While surface nanostr...
