1. Surface study at KEK 1) sponge cleaning 2) special single-cell cavity with de-toutchable Nb-samples T. Saeki on behalf of Jlab-FNAL-KEK S0 study collaboration LCWS08 at Chicago 17 Nov. 2008

2. Sponge cleaning study with Nb samples HPR + ethanol rinse / degreaser were introduced recently because HPR-only seems not enough to eliminate FE. And quality control of HPR is still very difficult. Usage of high- pressure water (~10 Mpa), UPW quality control ….etc. Direct physical/mechanical sponge wipe can improve the performance? Even shorten the duration of HPR / reduce the load of HPR? Prepare four Nb samples, sample-1, -1’, -2, -2’. Sample-1, -1’: BCP(30um)+EP(70um) + U.P.W. rinse. Sample-2, -2’: BCP(30um)+EP(70um) + U.P.W. rinse + sponge cleaning. Compare sample-1 and sample-2 by FS-SEM at Jlab. Compare sample-1’ and sample-2’ by XPS at KEK.

7. XPS Analysis of KEK-type Nb-sample-1’ & 2’ (BCP+EP w/ & w/o sponge cleaning) at KEK Oxygen Carbon from the air Nb Sulfur Nb Sulfur ~ 0% for both samples w/ and w/o sponge-cleaning. No significant difference of A.P. for both samples. A.P. for sample-1’ w/o sponge-cleaning = Nb:19%, O:55%, C:25% A.P. (Atomic Percentage) was estimated from the colored peaks. (Depth of analysis ~ 0.5 nm) Sample-1’ w/o sponge-cleaning Sample-2’ w/ sponge-cleaning A.P. for sample-2’ w/ sponge-cleaning = Nb:20%, O:57%, C:23%

9. Insertion of sponges Expansion and rotation of sponges inside cavity The single-cell cavity was EP’ed and UPW-rinsed before the sponge-cleaning test.

10. UPW Feeding UPW during the rotation of sponges for 1 – 2 minutes. Draining UPW inside the cavity Drained UPW was kept in a container to analyze the components/contamination. Drained UPW to a container

11. Analysis methods Filtering drained UPW (10L) through the filter-paper of 0.20μm → Condensation of filtered UPW (10L) to 70 ml. → Ion Chromatography (IC) analysis for filtered /condensed UPW (70 ml). Residuals on the filter-paper → Optical Microscope → Component-analysis by X-ray fluorescence (XRF) analyzer Optical Microscope XRF

12. Result of IC analysis 4.9 mg/L of F － was detected from filtered/condensed UPW (70ml). Sulfur ion (S, SO 4, etc) was not detected. The components were different from that of EP acid. Time (minutes) IC analysis of drained UPW after sponge test Cl ion is normally contaminated in this kind of analysis. Tap water and sweat contain lots of Cl ions.

Drained UPW to a container Pipes and flanges are commonly used for other BCP’ed cavities. This caused the contamination of Phosphorus (P) in the drained water. We will come back this later.

19. Summary of sponge cleaning study Two samples w/ and w/o sponge cleaning after EP-process were analyzed by FS-SEM and XPS. lots of field emitters (NbxOy) were found on the sample w/o sponge cleaning. Few field emitters were found on the sample w/ sponge cleaning. Sulfur was not found by XPS on the samples. First wiping/fitting test of sponge-cleaner was done with a single-cell cavity after EP process. UPW was fed during sponge wipe, and drained water was analyzed by IC and XRF. Sponge fibers/particles and S, P, Cl, F were found in the drained water. Next step: Can fibers/particles be removed by HPR? Selection of new sponges? Collaboration with sponge vendor for special (contamination-free) sponge? More detailed information can be found at http://ilc.kek.jp/JFK-S0/
