24 Influence of He atoms in the void formation of 800 kev 3 He implanted in tungsten Exp. results of P.E. Lhuilier PhD thesis CEMHTI Orléans: the higher the fluence, the smaller the voids in the track region 1/ Implantationstage done at 300 K with experimental flux and fluences (10 14, 10 15, and ions per cm 2 ). 2/ Isochronal annealing stage : T = 10 K every 3600 s up to 900 K..

26 RT implantation ==> SIA and nhe clusters are mobile: annihilation, desorption... surface Fluence increases surface Defect population after implantation stage: v, mv, nhe.psia, He.v, nhe.v PFMC-13, Rosenheim, may 2011 C. S. Becquart 26

27 RT implantation ==> SIA and nhe clusters are mobile: annihilation, desorption... surface Fluence increases surface non mobile Defect population after implantation stage: v, mv, nhe.psia, He.v, nhe.v PFMC-13, Rosenheim, may 2011 C. S. Becquart 27

28 End of implantation sequence (PAS) Good agreement with exp. data PFMC-13, Rosenheim, may 2011 C. S. Becquart 28

29 During the isochronal annealing, v start moving, small mv clusters emit ion/cm -2 concentration cm -3 SIA He v v clusters (mv, nhe.mv) PFMC-13, Rosenheim, may 2011 C. S. Becquart 29

30 During the isochronal annealing, v start moving, small mv clusters emit Clustering phase ion/cm -2 concentration cm -3 SIA He v v clusters (mv, nhe.mv) PFMC-13, Rosenheim, may 2011 C. S. Becquart 30

31 Clustering T range depends on fluence. Amount of desorption, annihilation and clustering also At 900K PFMC-13, Rosenheim, may 2011 C. S. Becquart 31

32 Vacancy cluster distribution at 900 K Nbr of clusters ion/cm Nbr of v in cluster The higher the fluence, the smaller the v clusters as observed experimentally PFMC-13, Rosenheim, may 2011 C. S. Becquart 32

33 Cluster distribution at the end of the implantation PFMC-13, Rosenheim, may 2011 C. S. Becquart 33

34 Cluster distribution at the end of the implantation Free vacancies PFMC-13, Rosenheim, may 2011 C. S. Becquart 34

35 Cluster distribution at the end of the implantation Germs nhe.psia Free vacancies PFMC-13, Rosenheim, may 2011 C. S. Becquart 35

36 At high fluence, it is easier to form clusters because the vacancies have less distance to cover. Furthermore, there are more germs and less desorption. Free vacancies / «germs» At the end of implantation sequence Fluence (ions cm -2 ) «germs» = non mobile clusters = nv.mhe + nsia.mhe Without He, not the same trends anymore PFMC-13, Rosenheim, may 2011 C. S. Becquart 36

37 Conclusions ==> Ab initio calculations: - He is very mobile - small He clusters are mobile, 2He clusters perform 1D motion at low T. - He and He clusters bind to almost everything - di-vacancy is unstable - vacancies stabilise He clusters ==> OKMC model parameterized on ab initio data and exp.: - relevance of implantation model - need more information on mobility of He clusters; trap mutation OKMC model can help interpret experimental results and vice versa PFMC-13, Rosenheim, may 2011 C.
