Defect production in tungsten under sub-threshold energy irradiation: role of hydrogen and surface effects

Despite the low solubility of hydrogen isotopes (HIs) in tungsten (W), their concentration can reach up to ∼10 at.% after low-energy plasma irradiation. This is generally attributed to the vacancies that may accommodate excessive HIs. However, the kinetic energy of incident HIs transferred to W is f...
