Low-Pressure Plasma Functionalisation of Fluoropolymers
In the present thesis, the problem of the functionalisation of fluoropolymers was addressed. As chemical methods for the functionalisation of fluoropolymers apply environmentally harmful chemicals, the research was directed to low-pressure non-equilibrium radiofrequency (RF) inductively coupled plasmas of environmentally friendly gasses. The research was focused on polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), the most …
Optimization of coupling between high-frequency generator and low pressure plasma
In this thesis we present the development of the device for the removal of carbon deposits in fusion reactors. Amorphous hydrogenated carbon deposits (a-C:H) represent a major problem for smooth operation of future fusion reactors with divertors containing carbon tiles, because they cause retention of radioactive tritium. There are techniques …
