Abstract

The performance of the plasma facing components (PFC) and materials in fusion reactor DEMO are fundamental issues affecting the ultimate technological and economic feasibility of fusion power. Many factors influence the choice of a functional and structural material in a fusion reactor. Component lifetime is mainly limited by radiation damage, disruptions, and sputtering erosion. Our design strategy is to determine the structure and coating thicknesses, which maximize component lifetime against all life limitations.
