We are looking for young and motivated students who are interested in a PhD work in our Laboratory for fusion research https://f2.ijs.si/en/fusion, Department for low and medium energy physics (F2) at Jožef Stefan Institute, Slovenia. Fusion is seen as a carbon-free energy source for the future generations https://www.iter.org/ . In our research we want to partially simulate the conditions that will occur on the walls, surrounding the 100 million degrees hot fusion plasma: simultaneous 14 MeV neutron irradiation, helium accumulation and hydrogen isotope (HI) implantation. Our main goal is to foster microscopic understanding to be able to predict fuel (deuterium and tritium) retention and transport in the walls of a future fusion reactor and to understand the mechanisms that prevail.
