Polycrystalline, recrystallized W targets were subjected to implantation with 20 MeV W6+ ions in order to simulate radiation damage caused by fusion neutrons. Three samples with cumulative damage of 0.01, 0.1 and 0.89 dpa were produced. The near-surface zone of each sample has been analyzed by transmission electron microscopy (TEM). To this end, lamellae oriented perpendicularly to the targets implanted surface were milled out using focused ion beam (FIB). A reference lamella from non-irradiated, recrystallized W target was also prepared to estimate the damage introduced during FIB processing. TEM studies revealed a complex microstructure of the damaged zones as well as its evolution with cumulative damage level. The experimentally observed damage depth agrees very well with the one calculated using the Stopping and Range of Ions in Matter (SRIM) software.
