Abstract
The isotope effect, hydrogen (H) versus deuterium (D), on the gross beryllium (Be) erosion yield has been measured in ohmic limiter plasmas in JET tokamak by spectroscopic means. A simplified method to extract the effective sputtering yield from the quotient of the radiances of the D
α
or D
γ
and the Be II lines at 527 nm was applied. A clear isotope effect has been found, the erosion yield of D being about a factor of 2 larger compared to H in the whole explored plasma density range. This is in agreement with physical sputtering data obtained with H
+
and D
+
ion beams and also with material surface computer simulations. The already published contribution of chemically assisted physical sputtering has been also identified here. Currently the study is being extended to tritium (T) and D–T plasmas and the effect of helium mixtures.
