Lithium dilution in Li-Sn alloys

Liquid lithium-tin (Li-Sn) alloys are being considered in alternative concepts of plasma facing components for nuclear fusion applications. Nevertheless, the high Li content and high melting temperature of Li-rich intermetallics may hinder their use due to a possible excessive evaporation of Li to t...
