摘 要：A tritium permeation barrier is required in fusion blankets for the reduction of fuel loss and radiological hazard.In this study,an Al2O3/Y2O3 composite coating was prepared on 316 L stainless steel by radiofrequency magnetron sputtering in order to improve the tritium permeation resistance.The microstructure and the phase composition of the Al2O3/Y2O3 composite coating are observed by scanning electron microscopy,transmission electron microscopy and grazing incidence X-ray diffraction.Moreover,Auger electron spectroscopy was used to characterize the depth profiles of Al,Y and O elements.The results clearly indicate that the Al2O3/Y2O3 composite coating is fully dense and the total thickness is approximately 340 nm.The Al2O3/Y2O3 coating consists of an amorphous Al2O3 and the cubic Y2O3,in which Al,Y and O elements are homogeneously distributed in the vertical base direction.Furthermore,the deuterium permeation property of the Al2O3/Y2O3 composite coating was measured by the gas phase permeation method.The results show that the introduction of an interface and the existence of a tiny amount of micro-defects improve the deuterium resistance of the Al2O3/Y2O3 coating,and its deuterium permeation reduction factor is 536-750 at 873-973 K.Therefore,it is concluded that the Al2O3/Y2O3 co mposite coating as deuterium permeation barrier can significa ntly enha nce the deuterium permeation resistance property.
