An ultra high vacuum (UHV) condition, a changeable high temperature liner and in-situ AES are three distinctive feature of the SUT device. Saturation density of oxygen atoms was as large as 1.2 x 10^17 /cm2 on a boronized surface, whereas 1.5 x 10^16/cm2 on a bare stainless steel surface. It is found by AES analysis that the oxygen-contained layer was as thick as 50 nm from the top surface of the boron film. From such a large oxygen-saturation density, we expect that the oxygen-gettering ability of the boronized surface is likely to be maintained during one-day experiment of LHD. The oxygen -saturation behavior was quite similar between the boronized surfaces obtained with decaborane and diborane, which indicates that, as a working gas of the boronization, the decaborane works well compared with diborane, as afar as oxygen gettering is concerned."}, title = {Boronization Study for Application to Large Helical Device}, year = {1994} }
