    Notes: An apparatus and an experimental procedure, mainly designed to investigate the thermodynamics and kinetics of hydrogen evolution in materials, are described. Employing a 30 ns ruby laser pulse as a heat source, this method probes H behavior at higher temperatures and on a much shorter time scale than classic thermal desorption. Precise calibration techniques for the laser fluence and the desorption yield have been developed. The absolute calibration agrees well with a measurement of the H content by elastic recoil detection. Particular attention has been paid to lateral uniformization of the laser intensity, to allow valid one-dimensional modeling of laser heating and H evolution, and extraction of the activation energies and kinetic factors. As an example, a cursory study of intrinsic H in Be is presented. The method is also applicable to other volatile dopants.

    Notes: The profile of titanium (Ti) lines produced by KrF excimer laser direct writing on lithium niobate (LiNbO3) has been investigated in detail since it is critical in the fabrication of Ti in-diffused LiNbO3 optical waveguides. Lines written at speeds varying from 0.5 to 10 μm/s have typical thicknesses and linewidths varying from 10 to 185 nm and from 2 to 24 μm, respectively. At a low power density E, the maximum thickness t is proportional to the number of photons or the power density. Increasing E allows a sufficient heating, which leads to the diffusion of Ti into LiNbO3, resulting in a sharp decrease of the thickness in the middle of the deposited line.

    Notes: The behavior of H-ion-implanted c-Si was investigated at temperatures up to the melting point, on the 10−8 s time scale, using pulsed-laser annealing in conjunction with quantitative analysis of the released gas. Laser reflectivity, scanning electron microscopy, and surface profilometry were also used to characterize implantation and annealing effects. Computational kinetic modeling of H release as a function of laser energy is applied to the interpretation of the data. The desorption of H implanted at 1 or 2 keV takes place at ≥1000 K, without extensive surface deformation, and can be fitted by detrapping with an activation energy (≈2 eV) that slowly decreases with the H/Si ratio in the range 4%–27%; contrary to expectation, no limitation by diffusion is observed. Implanted at 5 or 10 keV and H/Si≥20%, H is released at ≥550 K by blister rupture. In spite of the differences between the results for low and high implantation energies, a unified picture emerges, involving a layer with a high-temperature H mobility greater than that of ordinary atomic diffusion.

    Notes: The purpose of this paper is to examine the feasibility of large eddy simulation (LES) for predicting gas–solid flows in which the carrier flow turbulence is modified by momentum exchange with particles. Several a priori tests of subgrid-scale (SGS) turbulence models are conducted utilizing results from direct numerical simulation (DNS) of a forced homogeneous isotropic turbulent flow with the back effect of the particles modeled using the point-force approximation. Properties of the subgrid-scale field are computed by applying Gaussian filters to the DNS database. Similar to the behavior observed in single-phase flows, a priori test results show that, while the local energy flux is inaccurately estimated, the overall SGS dissipation is reasonably predicted using the conventional Smagorinsky model and underestimated using the Bardina scale-similarity model. Very good agreement between model predictions and DNS results are measured using closures whose coefficients are computed using the resolved field, the so-called dynamic subgrid models, with the mixed model yielding more accurate predictions than the dynamic Smagorinsky model. A priori test results are then confirmed in actual LES calculations used to investigate the sensitivity of the predictions to mesh refinement. The LES was performed at infinite turbulent Reynolds number and for a range of particle response times and mass loadings. Grid resolution in the LES was varied from 323 to 963 collocation points, with particle sample sizes of 885 000 for each response time. LES predictions of the flow with two-way coupling are independent of mesh refinement when using the dynamic mixed model and when the particle relaxation time becomes larger than the characteristic time scale of the unresolved fluid turbulent field. © 2000 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Double transport barrier modes (simultaneous core and edge transport barrier) have been observed with off-axis ion cyclotron range of frequencies (ICRF) heating in the Alcator C-Mod tokamak [I. H. Hutchinson et al., Phys. Plasmas 1, 1511 (1994)]. An internal transport barrier (ITB) is routinely produced in enhanced DαH-mode (EDA) discharges where the minority ion cyclotron resonance layer is at r/a∼|0.5| during the current flat top phase of the discharge. The density profile becomes peaked without the presence of a particle source in the plasma core and continues to peak until the increased core impurity radiation arrests the improved energy confinement, ultimately leading to a barrier collapse. With the addition of moderate (0.6 MW) central ICRF heating, the double barrier mode was maintained for as long as the ICRF power was applied. Modeling shows that the internal thermal barrier was maintained throughout the discharge. The presence of sawteeth throughout most of the ITB discharge allows sawtooth-induced heat pulse analysis to be performed. This analysis indicates that there is an abrupt radial discontinuity in the heat pulse time to peak profile when an ITB is present. Furthermore, this discontinuity appears to move into the core plasma from the edge region in about 0.2 s, several confinement times. The deduced thermal diffusivity, χhp, indicates that a barrier exists in the electron thermal transport, the barrier is limited to a narrow radial region, and the transport is unaffected outside this narrow radial extent. © 2002 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: High resolution measurements on the Alcator C-Mod tokamak [I. H. Hutchinson et al., Phys. Plasmas 1, 1551 (1994)] of the transport barrier in the "Enhanced Dα" (EDA) regime, which has increased particle transport without large edge localized modes, show steep density and temperature gradients over a region of 2–5 mm, with peak pressure gradients up to 12 MPa/m. Evolution of the pedestal at the L-H transition is consistent with a large, rapid drop in thermal conductivity across the barrier. A quasi-coherent fluctuation in density, potential, and Bpol, with f0∼50–150 kHz and kθ∼4 cm−1, always appears in the barrier during EDA, and drives a large particle flux. Conditions to access the steady-state EDA regime in deuterium include δ〉0.35, q95〉3.5, and L-mode target density n¯e〉1.2×1020 m−3. A reduced q95 limit is found for hydrogen discharges. © 2001 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Electron temperature measurements in helicon plasmas are difficult. The presence of intense rf fields in the plasma complicates the interpretation of Langmuir probe measurements. Furthermore, the non-negligible ion temperature in the plasma considerably shortens the lifetime of conventional Langmuir probes. A spectroscopic technique based on the relative intensities of neutral helium lines is used to measure the electron temperature in the HELIX (Hot hELicon eXperiment) plasma [P. A. Keiter et al., Phys. Plasmas 4, 2741 (1997)]. This nonintrusive diagnostic is based on the fact that electron impact excitation rate coefficients for helium singlet and triplet states differ as a function of the electron temperature. The different aspects related to the validity of this technique to measure the electron temperature in rf generated plasmas are discussed in this paper. At low plasma density (ne≤1011 cm−3), this diagnostic is believed to be very reliable since the population of the emitting level can be easily estimated with reasonable accuracy by assuming that all excitation originates from the ground state (steady-state corona model). At higher density, secondary processes (excitation transfer, excitation from metastable, cascading) become more important and a more complex collisional radiative model must be used to predict the electron temperature. In this work, different helium transitions are examined and a suitable transition pair is identified. For an electron temperature of 10 eV, the line ratio is measured as a function of plasma density and compared to values predicted by models. The measured line ratio function is in good agreement with theory and the data suggest that the excitation transfer is the dominant secondary process in high-density plasmas. © 2001 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Measurements of parallel and perpendicular ion temperatures in the Large Experiment on Instabilities and Anisotropies (LEIA) space simulation chamber display an inverse correlation between the upper bound on the ion temperature anisotropy and the parallel ion beta (β=8πnkT/B2). Fluctuation measurements indicate the presence of low frequency, transverse, electromagnetic waves with wave numbers and frequencies that are consistent with predictions for Alfvén Ion Cyclotron instabilities. These observations are also consistent with in situ spacecraft measurements in the Earth's magnetosheath and with a theoretical/computational model that predicts that such an upper bound on the ion temperature anisotropy is imposed by scattering from enhanced fluctuations due to growth of the Alfvén ion cyclotron instability. © 2000 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Alcator C-Mod [I. H. Hutchinson et al., Phys. Plasmas 1, 1511 (1994)] has operated a High-confinement-mode (H-mode) plasma together with a dissipative divertor and low core Zeff. The initially attached plasma is characterized by steady-state enhancement factor, HITER89P [P. N. Yushmanov et al., Nucl. Fusion 30, 1999 (1990)], of 1.9, central Zeff of 1.1, and a radiative fraction of ∼50%. Feedback control of a nitrogen gas puff is used to increase radiative losses in both the core/edge and divertor plasmas in almost equal amounts. Simultaneously, the core plasma maintains HITER89P of 1.6 and Zeff of 1.4 in this nearly 100% radiative state. The power and particle flux to the divertor plates have been reduced to very low levels while the core plasma is relatively unchanged by the dissipative nature of the divertor. © 1999 American Institute of Physics.
