TiZrHfVvalues describe: TiZrHfV
Big science (accelerators, light sources, public fusion)
What it enables
Lower activation temperature than TiZrV: NEG pumping on even less bakeable systems.
Status and pusher
Validated by XPS and pumping tests, baselined for chambers of the HALF light source in Hefei. Pushed by the Chinese light source program on the CERN lineage.
Properties
