We report the formation of wave-like structures and nanostructured fuzzes in the
polycrystalline tungsten (W) irradiated with high-flux and low-energy helium (He) ions. From …

In order to study the early stages of nanofuzz growth in fusion-plasma-facing tungsten, mirror-
polished high-purity tungsten was exposed to 80 eV helium at 1130° C to a fluence of 4× 10 …

To investigate the formation processes of tungsten nano-structures, so called fuzz, in situ
transmission electron microscope observations during helium ion irradiation and high …

Helium (He) plasma irradiation to tungsten leads to formation of He bubbles and fiberform
nanostructures called fuzz on the surface. Although the fuzz growth condition and growth …

Helium plasma irradiation to various metals leads to peculiar morphology changes as
forming fiberform nanostructures called fuzz when a certain set of conditions is satisfied. In …

We report on the low energy helium ion irradiation induced surface morphology changes on
tungsten (W) surfaces under extreme conditions. Surface morphology changes on W …

Tungsten (W) samples were exposed to helium (He) plasmas with precipitation of W
particles. It was shown that visible large-scale fiberform nanostructures (LFNs) were formed …

He+ ion induced tungsten nanostructure (tungsten fuzz) has been created for the first time in
a magnetron sputtering device. The nanostructure was formed on a W substrate facing the …

Helium plasma irradiation on metal surfaces leads to the formation of metallic fuzzy
nanostructures accompanied by the growth of helium bubbles in metals. The mechanism of …

Growth of helium bubbles near the surface of metals leads to various morphology changes
when sufficient helium ions are continuously implanted on the surface. In this study, low …
