Summary <strong>and</strong> outlook<br />

§ T<strong>in</strong> has been studied as <strong>liquid</strong> <strong>target</strong> material alternative to<br />

Lithium <strong>with</strong><strong>in</strong> the concept of a the capillary porous system.<br />

§ Tungsten has been found as optimum mesh material, wett<strong>in</strong>g<br />

improved under hydrogen atmosphere.<br />

§ Exposure <strong>in</strong> <strong>PSI</strong>-2: mass loss could not be expla<strong>in</strong>ed by<br />

physical sputter<strong>in</strong>g / evaporation – temperature enhanced<br />

sputter<strong>in</strong>g?<br />

§ Exposure <strong>in</strong> <strong>TEXTOR</strong>: mass loss dom<strong>in</strong>ated by strong droplet<br />

emission, mechanism unclear to date<br />

§ Next exposure <strong>in</strong> <strong>PSI</strong>-2: <strong>target</strong> bias<strong>in</strong>g to <strong>in</strong>crease ion energy<br />

to come close to <strong>TEXTOR</strong> conditions <strong>and</strong> to assess<br />

temperature enhanced erosion<br />

§ Next exposure <strong>in</strong> <strong>TEXTOR</strong>: position<strong>in</strong>g of <strong>target</strong>s <strong>in</strong> erosion<br />

dom<strong>in</strong>ated zone to prevent carbon deposition<br />
