pursues to continue a recently open research line with Sn prototypes (in which a novel LM embedded Langmuir Probe configuration has been developed [5] for
configuration for LM plasmoid diagnosis), fully extend it to SnLi alloy targets and develop technological upgrades to eventually apply this research to pure
