Physics-Informed Machine Learning Approach to Modeling Line Emission from Helium-Containing Plasmas

The helium I line intensity ratio (LIR) method is used to measure the electron density ($n_e$) and temperature ($T_e$) of fusion-relevant plasmas. Although the collisional-radiative model (CRM) has been used to predict $n_e$ and $T_e$, recent studies have shown that machine learning approaches can provide better measurements if a sufficient dataset for training is available. This study investigates a hybrid neural network approach that combines CRM- and experiment-based models. Although the CRM-based model alone exhibited negative transfer in most cases, the ensemble model modestly improved the prediction accuracy of $T_e$. Notably, in data-limited scenarios, the CRM-based model outperformed the others for $T_e$ prediction, highlighting its potential for applications with constrained diagnostic access.

Molecular Dynamics Simulation of Chemical Vapor Deposition of Amorphous Carbon: Dependence on H/C Ratio of Source Gas

By molecular dynamics simulation, the chemical vapor deposition of amorphous carbon onto graphite and diamond surfaces was studied. In particular, we investigated the effect of source H/C ratio, which is the ratio of the number of hydrogen atoms to the number of carbon atoms in a source gas, on the deposition process. In the present simulation, the following two source gas conditions were tested: one was that the source gas was injected as isolated carbon and hydrogen atoms, and the other was that the source gas was injected as hydrocarbon molecules. Under the former condition, we found that as the source H/C ratio increases, the deposition rate of carbon atoms decreases exponentially. This exponential decrease in the deposition rate with increasing source H/C ratio agrees with experimental data. However, under the latter molecular source condition, the deposition rate did not decrease exponentially because of a chemical reaction peculiar to the type of hydrocarbon in the source gas.

Measurement of electron sheath thickness and collection region of electric probe using laser photodetachment signals

A new type of laser photodetachment (LPD) technique has been developed for the measurement of electron sheath thickness around an electrostatic probe and for the measurement of the length of collection region of photodetached electrons (PDE). When a thickness of the sheath formed around an electrostatic probe is thicker than about 0.1 mm, modification of the temporal evolution of the LPD signal is observed. By making use of the modification, we evaluated sheath thickness around a cylindrical probe in the existence of the magnetic field of 15 mT. It was found that the thickness of electron sheath along the magnetic field was comparable to the calculated plane-parallel Child-Langmuir sheath thickness when the probe-bias voltage was high. Furthermore, by inserting a small screening object in the laser beam channel, we can measure the sheath thickness from the modification of LPD signal. From the variation of the signal intensity as scanning the screening object perpendicular to the laser beam channel, we can observe the collection region of photodetached electrons, because this procedure changes the relative displacement between shadow and the probe electrode.
