Abstract
Using ellipsometry and reflectometry, an anomalous change in the optical properties of recrystallized tungsten (W) as a result of bombardment with deuterium (D) ions was discovered at a sample temperature of ∼535 K. There is a qualitative difference between the value of reflectivity obtained from reflectometry measurements and that calculated from the ellipsometric data. A physical model of the discovered effect is proposed. It is shown that two processes take place at the surface of W exposed to plasma at 535 K: the appearance of blisters and a modification of the electronic structure of the surface layer.
