LiMeS-Wetting is a device at the Differ – Dutch Institute For Fundamental Energy Research ("DIFFER".) research institute in Eindhoven. The LiMeS lab within Differ, which is the acronym for Liquid-Metal Shield, focuses on creating and verifying materials for future nuclear fusion reactors, in which the liquid metal is held by capillary action.
The device is used to perform both wetting studies for tin on tungsten and filling 3d printed capillary porous tungsten structures for use in a larger test-setup. The process for this is first plasma cleaning the sample material, followed by injecting tin droplets to fill the sample.
For the cleaning there are a Cascaded Arc Plasma Source,[1] as well as a radical source and glow discharge cleaning. The injector provides tin droplets and the process is verified by the diagnostics: double Langmuir probe, radical probe, shadowgraph and an optical emission spectrometer.
