Mechanism of hydrogen isotope exchange for tritium removal in plasma-facing materials: a multi-scale investigation

The safety of future fusion reactors is critically dependent on the tritium (T) retention in plasma-facing materials.Hydrogen isotope (HI) exchange offers a method to redistribute HIs within solid materials, presenting a feasible approach for removing T from bulk materials and trapped by strong trapping sites.Nonetheless, unraveling the intricate m
