Loss tangent measurements on an extremely large diamond disc for Brewster angle windows — •Andreas Meier1, Gaetano Aiello1, Theo Scherer1, Sabine Schreck1, Dirk Strauß1, Christoph Wild2, and Eckhard Wörner2 — 1Karlsruhe Institute of Technology, Hermann-von-Helmholtz-Platz 1, 76344 Eggenstein-Leopoldshafen, Germany — 2Diamond Materials GmbH, Hans-Bunte-Straße 19, 79108 Freiburg, Germany
Advanced Electron Cyclotron heating systems for future fusion reactors, such as DEMO, are designed for multi-frequency operation. The favored output window concept of the high power microwave beam is the brewster angle setup, but it requires a disc diameter of 180 mm for the 67.2° angle and the 63.5 mm waveguide. In addition, a thickness of approximately 2 mm is needed to achieve the proper mechanical stability. State of the art microwave plasma reactors are not capable of growing discs of such a size. The maximum available diameter of a polycrystalline CVD diamond disc suited to microwave applications is currently 140 mm.
An extremely large diamond disc with a diameter of 180 mm for RF transmission application was produced by the industrial partner Diamond Materials GmbH. High-resolution loss tangent measurements for several areas of this disc have been realized by using a spherical resonator.
