Outline of Final Research Achievements

A simultaneous addition of nitrogen with carbon impurities into D2 plasmas can strongly suppress the hydrogenated carbon film growth at low surface temperature of Ts=310~400 K. Nitrogen scavenger effects on carbon film formation and growth are dominantly related to slow chemical reactions of nitrogen in the hydrogenated carbon films(τ~50 min), such as diffusive penetration of atomic nitrogen and formation of new chemical equilibrium. Carbon film growth with nitrogen shows a nonlinear feature with the amount of added nitrogen that the film growth rate suddenly drops at N/C=0.8~1.
Volatile DCN and NDx formation and release from the deposited films contributed to reduce the hydrogen isotope retention in the deposited hydrogenated carbon film. Rough estimation of deuterium retention showed that the ratio of the total number of deuterium atoms absorbed in the hydrogenated carbon films to the total carbon atoms introduced into the chamber is D/C=1.2~1.8 without nitrogen addition.
