Abstract
In this paper, surface modification of the strut dowel used in ITER PF support is reported. Different ions (nitrogen/titanium) with different doses are implanted into the surface of strut dowel. The result of Auger Electron Spectroscopy (AES) indicates that nitrogen can be implanted more deeply than titanium under the implantation condition of 60 kV accelerating voltage and a dose of 8x1017/cm2 nitrogen. Surface Micro Hardness (SMH) and wear resistance are improved remarkably. Further SEM observation shows that there are no obvious scratches and damages after wear test.
