Early stage fusion research shows, effective control of impurity is the necessary means that obtains high performance plasmas.The energy loss by radiation caused for fear of impurity, for high Z materials, its impurity density must be controlled at the level that approaches 1%; And, for low Z materials, its impurity level must be controlled at 10 -5enough low levels.This just requires plasma and material interaction to be controlled, and comprises material selection, structural design and wall treatment technology etc.Wherein, wall is processed Main Means and is: (1) large built-in cryogenic pump of pumping speed, to increase the ability that extracts to gas; (2) means such as boronation, silication can be improved the impurity level of wall, but boron film or silicon fiml will progressively be corroded after multiple discharge, and the discharge time that it can be supported is limited; (3) to clean be the Main Means that removing is adsorbed on impurity and hydrogen on wall for baking and plasmaassisted.More conventional wall processing mode mainly contains Resistant heating baking, eddy-current heating baking, direct current glow discharge cleaning (GDC) and Taylor discharge cleaning (TDC) etc., and has obtained rich experience and effect.In order to reduce the discharge quantity of wall, improve final vacuum, must fully remove the gas adsorbed on wall.The most frequently used method is the temperature of rising wall, but this is subject to the restriction of encapsulant and ambient conditions.If simultaneously or carry out subsequently the processing of plasmaassisted wall, cured effect can be enhanced.On Tokamak, the general technology such as low-energy direct current glow discharge cleaning (GDC), the ion involution auxiliary discharge (ICRF) based on radio-frequency technique and electron cyclotron auxiliary discharge (ECRF) that adopt are achieved at present.
Although these conventional wall treatment technologies are greatly developed, and have effectively suppressed impurity level and reduced hydrogen isotope recirculation, all there is its merits and demerits in different wall cleaning ways.The GDC cleaning technique is very ripe, but must, in the very little time work in device magnetic field, limit them and apply in following superconducting tokamak device.ICRF cleans and can be particularly suitable for superconducting tokamak device in the situation that very strong magnetic field existence is used, and is particularly suitable for device of future generation, as ITER.But ion involution cleans the annular region that applying plasma mainly concentrates on the device center, be mainly used in the first wall surface of cleaning surface plasma, and the impurity in diagnostic window, shadow region is difficult to be eliminated.

Magnetic trapped fusion apparatus is the plasma that the research and utilization magnetically confined produces in vacuum chamber, by heating plasma, realizes fusion reaction, and fusion energy output is for generating the most at last.As shown in Figure 1, the toroidal container that its vacuum chamber is a D type cross section, vacuum chamber upper, the neutralization under 16 windows are arranged respectively.The first wall 11 is and the contacted parts of plasma, is cleaning object of the present invention, and vacuum-chamber wall 12 is the vacuum seal parts, and window 13 is various inner parts and the communication means of installing exterior part.
As shown in Figure 2,3, implementation process of the present invention is: in the magnetic trapped fusion apparatus vacuum chamber, helium or the hydrogen of prior preliminary filling 0.1-10Pa, arrange high frequency antenna in the magnetic trapped fusion apparatus vacuum chamber, then take the magnetic trapped fusion apparatus vacuum chamber as negative pole, the high frequency antenna stretched in the magnetic trapped fusion apparatus vacuum chamber is positive level, and applying voltage between negative pole and positive pole is that 3-5KV, frequency are the radio-frequency field that 20-50KHz, power are 2-10KW; In the magnetic trapped fusion apparatus vacuum chamber, once apply high-frequency electric field, gas just is easy to breakdown, produce plasma discharge, to effectively bombard magnetic confinement vacuum chamber the first wall, after the Discharge Cleaning through 1-10 hour, reach the purpose to the cleaning of the first wall.
The high frequency antenna used in the present invention is spiral inductance antenna 4 or capacity plate antenna 7.
The high frequency electric source scope of high performance-price ratio is at present: power 2-10 kilowatt, frequency 10-50KHz, voltage 1-5 kilovolt.Use this scope high frequency electric source, and in the magnetic confinement vacuum chamber reasonable Arrangement high frequency antenna, just can produce high-frequency electric field.
The effective antenna mode that produces high-frequency electric field has two kinds:
(1) the spiral inductance antenna 4
As shown in Figure 2, by 1 pair of device inflation of inflation inlet, 2 is bleeding point, and 3 is the discharge range in vacuum chamber, and the structure of spiral inductance antenna 4 is induction structures of a helix ring type, is connected on high frequency electric source 6.According to the size of selected high frequency electric source 6 frequencies, design and the antenna structure that high frequency electric source 6 output impedance are complementary, be complementary the impedance of antenna and power supply output impedance; Perhaps use the stainless steel inductance coil of 10-20 circle helical structure, add match circuit 5 between power supply and coil.The output impedance of the input impedance of match circuit 5 and high frequency electric source 6 is complementary, the impedance phase coupling of the output impedance of match circuit 5 and spiral inductance antenna 4, thus the power of high frequency electric source 6 can be exported by stable matching.For better producing homogeneous plasma and can being adjusted as required, spiral inductance antenna 4 can be designed to along the radially removable mode of vacuum vessel port.
